About April

What makes me a great caregiver is that I do it from my heart it takes a very strong and loving, dedicated individual to be a caregiver. What made me become a caregiver is at the age of 17yrs, old I lost my father due to seroises of the liver and treating him for cancer I watched my father pass away I felt so helpless and said to myself that when I grew up I would help people and take care of them. I have been in a certified healthcare profesional for over 16 years.

    My name is Stephanie Potts & I have 2 boys that are my heart. A 23 year old & an almost 13 year old. My youngest has a form of autism but is the smartest child I know. The oldest is a leader & a truth seeker & together they're an unstoppable Force. They get their best qualities from their mother of course. I love things neat & in there place. Taking care of people comes naturally to me. I absolutely love elderly people. They all have their own stories about their life experiences. Some have met famous people other were dancers & teachers. I love how their faces light up when they talk about lost loves. I suppose I just understand old people. They make my heart happy!! I go in starting a new job but leave as old friends. I will treat your parents like I would my own. Looking forward to meeting yall in the near future. Have a blessed day....
