About LACLAIRE

My mom told me when I was a child, I climbed into the lap of another child in a wheel chair and shared my ice cream with him! He had Down syndrome and no one played with him; I was only 3 or 4! I've always had a caring heart, genuinely! I care for the elder population because there is a lack thereof! Wisdom, the fact that life is blissful and no filter is what drives me to care for my elder patients! They help me to be the best me without a care because although we could be old in years, life waits for no one! So I appreciate the small things like a smile and a thank you! They go such a long way with me! I am a certified nursing assistant and medical assistant, so I have worked with doctors and nurses to achieve satisfactory patient care! My goal is to become a nurse and run an adult day care, for those families looking for alternate care instead of a nursing home! I am proud of who I am becoming!

My name is Sharon. I have alot of experience in being a caregiver. I love getting to know my clients and building a relationship with them. I always find fun and interesting things to do and freebies out in the community to experience. I became a caregiver 20 years ago when I became a foster mother. I saw a tv commercial asking for fostercare parents to give a safe place and open heart to a child in need and my heart just melted my eyes were filled with tears.... I went for the training and got certified right away. I am trustworthy, dedicated, and patient. I enjoy knowing that I'm making a difference in someone else's life. The feeling of giving back fills my cup!! I'm also involved with many community service groups that ranges from special Olympics- Fostercare camp counselor- to prison retreat serve trips. During the summer - I completed my internship with NWSRA with the zumba class and the cheerleading team.. it was alot of fun and a good experience for me and the team. I'm most proud of besides my awards for creativity and Employee of the year, but also when I go to work in a group home, the clients get so excited to see me because they know how much I care about them and they know I will have fun things planned for them to try.. they won't be bored when I'm on the shift.
