About Laqwanza

I'm a very dedicated worker that take pride in being a great caregiver with 11 years of experience. What attracts me in being a caregiver is when my family member was experiencing difficulties with there disabilities due to a car accident, and I felt like it was my job to help them with everyday living; and that made me passionate in taking care of people.
