About Laura

I started taking care of my Grandmother and when she passed away I realized that I really loved taking care seniors. I like being a Caregiver because I love to help people and I feel that I can make a difference in helping people. My personal achievement was when I received my Certified Nursing Assistance certificate. I am a very caring and good hearted person, I love to listen to people and I love to put a smile on faces.

    It has been my privilege to lovingly care for elderly people with dementia, starting with my mother-in-law. I enjoy entering their world and showing them the dignity, respect and gentle care our elders should have. I have become the trusted companion of each person I’ve cared for, and have served several of them for years at a time. Support for the family of the person I am companion to is a special part of my ministry. I am currently a part-time seminary student and simply love people. My desire is to bring joy and wisdom in caregiving to those I serve.

    I'am a patient, kind, caring knowledgeable Caregiver with 11 year's worth of experience.I'am a certified Medical Assistant (MA). The reason I've wanted to be a caregiver is because I believe that every person's life is valuable and deserves special care. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is that I can help others live a quality life. My most personal achievement that I'am proud of is finishing school to become a Medical Assistant.
