About Erica

I became a Caregiver due to my Grandmother having a stroke a couple of years back. When I was taking care of her it really gave me a different outlook on LIFE. Seeing my grandmother at one point being independent and then all of a sudden, not being able to do much of anything really did something to me. Having this as my Career brings me joy. Knowing that I'm helping someone and making them feel just as independent as they where, puts a smile not only on my face, but on theirs too and that look is priceless. Helping others is a God given gift. I feel that I was put on this earth to do just that. With me helping others and not being selfish, I feel that I have achieved many of my goals. I am a home owner at the age of 33 and I own my own business. I'm also starting the process of opening my Adult Daycare! Having 5 wonderful children living in Atlanta can be a little difficult, but when you have God on your side and a wonderful family who supports me in everything I do who has time to complain. I'm Blessed, Happy, and love LIFE!
