About Latoya

I became a caregiver because I love taking care of people I have a pure and kind heart that is full of love. What I love about being a caregiver is being able to help those who can't physically help themselves. I love comforting people and being a listener the older people. A personal achievement I am proud of is being able to complete and finish my training in medical assistant. I also have a college degree in early childhood education from Richard Daley College which is one of my most proudest moments. About me, I am someone who is very easy going. I think I was put on this earth to help children and older people. It has always been a passion of mines since I was younger. I love who I am and I love who I'm becoming.
