About Carolyn

I believe that in this day age people are living longer and want to do so in their own homes with doing that some need a liitle extra help. I became a caregiver because I want to provide the kind of care I would want my own mother to have. I enjoy talking with the people I care for hearing about their lives and families. One of my most memorable moments I had with a client was someone who had not been able to walk very well and get outside as she has before but mostly fear was preventing it but with doing range of motion exercise's and encourage I was able to get her moving again and sitting outside and then for short walks, It was so rewarding and I was overjoyed that I help bring her happiness. I am an upbeat happy person and enjoy what I do
