About Tawandra

I became a caregiver to promote the better quality of life for those who need that extra help. I enjoy meeting and learning about people and their cultures and to be able to share and provide love and care.one my most favorite personal achievements was being able to assist someone who had not gotten out of bed in 6mths. to get out of bed and start walking again. Im a caring individual I care when none else does this isnot just a job for me this a way of life because someones life is in my hands daily depending on me even if its just for a few kind words.
