About Nancy

I am beginning in care-giving field. However, I over 18 years volunteer experience and a BS in Human Services. I did an internship at Clearview Alzheimer's Facility, and found I enjoyed the social interactions and activities with their clients. They brought me joy. I was proud when one client's wife came in and was amazed that I had her husband playing "bones" or dominoes. It was than I realized how truly important even the simplest things are to the clients, and their families. I am organized and have office management skills. I like to cook, play games, and being a mom of two charming teenagers, I know what it takes to run a household, and all the errands that come with care-giving. In addition, I helped a friend with her twins and mother.
