What our team members are saying.
Yvonne Nixon
“What matters for me most working at Just Like Family is that it gives me delight when a client wants me to come back to their home to take care of them. I look beyond the client/employee relationship. I put my mind in the setting as if it’s me caring for my own relative. It matters a lot to me to interact with my clients. I always put myself in my clients shoes. You’re never going to know what it’s like if you don’t have empathy for your clients.
I have confidence in myself. I have a positive mindset. I take pride in my knowledge of my personal skills. I believe my efforts make a difference for those who can not do it anymore. I love my job. The main reason why it’s going on 8 years of me doing something I surely would say comes natural and my clients are the ones that reap the benefits of having a true, compassionate caregiver taking care of them. True story – my client held my hand to tell me how grateful she was to have me, tears started pouring out of my eyes and hers. That’s the difference that makes me want to serve my clients.
Reasons I love working at Just Like Family is that I get to be in a home setting environment which doesn’t make it feel like work at all. Also, I get to meet new people to share captivating, fascinating and absorbing stories and backgrounds with.”

“Making a difference in my client’s lives mean the most to me. Whatever I can do to make their day easier or bring a smile to their face makes me feel like I’ve done a good job.
When I am able to see the relief on their faces or when a client is able to express their gratitude, I know I’ve made a difference, whether it’s something so small as a hug or as big as easing/relieving a source of discomfort.
Reasons I love working at Just Like Family is that I appreciate the opportunity to plan my availability to suit my family and personal obligations. I enjoy meeting and getting to know my clients. I learn so much from every client I meet.”
Allison Garman
“My job as a caregiver makes a difference for our clients by making their lives a little easier and safer. We also provide them with comfort. Not only for our clients but their family as well, knowing that their loved one is being taken care of when they themselves can’t be there gives the family peace of mind.
Reasons I love working at Just Like Family is that I am able to make a difference in someone’s life. Helping someone gives me joy. Being able to make my own availability has helped me not only be able to work but also continue to be at home when my family needs me. It’s helps me grow as a person. Lastly, our office staff is really great and very understanding which makes JLF easy to work for.”
