About Shalina

The reason why I became a care giver is because in the year 2006 my loved one became very ill . And that's where I learned how important it is to help others and to know how I can help that person that was special to me . What I love about being a caregiver is helping those who have no family, or their family is not available to help them. Giving them that friendship, and companionship. I'm proud that I over came someone that was special to me's passing away, that loss made me strong and love what I'm doing to help others. I'm a outgoing person who loves making others happy . I have a great spirit , and really love what I do .
