Chakeeta has been a member of our Home Helpers family since August of 2019. Caring for others is something Chakeeta feels strongly about, as she has been a caregiver for over 28 years. Also, she has been a licensed certified nursing assistant for 18 of those 28 years.
We cannot say enough about Chakeeta. She certainly is exceptional and is a favorite of many of our clients. She has a natural ability to know what someone needs before they ask for it. She always wants to go above and beyond, making sure our clients receive only the best care. She is very reliable and oftentimes will go out of her way to adjust her schedule to help a client in need. “I get a lot of satisfaction from helping others. I feel like I am helping God. I just feel like this is God’s work for me. I feel like I get more out of caregiving than my clients realize,” said Chakeeta.
“Reliability is hard to come by. Thank you for being someone we can always count on! We are so grateful for all of your hard work. The entire team thanks you for everything you do.” - Jonathan and the Home Helpers Admin Staff
