About Deborah

I think caring for others is God's work and I love it. I see so many people out there mostly elderly people that need help don't have anyone in a life to help them or be a companion to them. That's why I became a caregiver. I like helping being there and being a good listener. I'm proud of knowing that I made someone smile and feel comfortable.
