About Lauren

Patience is a virtue, but it is also the key characteristic to have as a qualified caregiver. I have an enormous amount of patience with each and every client I work with. Caregiving is a very important part of my life because all I have ever wanted to do was help others. I feel like the elderly, especially, are left out in this society and need more people with kindness and patience to care for them because they have earned that respect. I always make sure to have a smile on my face and have positive energy surround me so that they can feel more at home and at ease.
