My greatest quality (and this is hard to actually admit) is caring for others. It brings me great joy and humility to be in service of others. I have been caring for my children as a stay at home mother for the past 15+ years. It's been a selfless and learning time for me, but also a tremendous period of personal growth. I know that to be fulfilled as a person, I need to be helping, nurturing, or caring for others. As a mother, I've learned so many different skills that would carry over to Caregiving. I know that being a 'Domestic Manager" these days entails so many skill sets and I am confident that everything that I've taught myself over these past years would translate into the Caregiving environment. My proudest achievement is my boys. They are turning out to be tremendous young men with so many wonderful gifts. I have a need to help others in a Caregiving capacity. I love reaching out to both young and old. My favorite thing in life is to hear "someone's story". We all have one. And when I get to listen.... really listen and know a person and make a connection, well, that's what a good life is.
