About Leah

I'm a compassionate person with over 20+ years of caregiving experience. I like caregiving because I enjoy helping others when they need someone most. The bonds built with clients and families are something I treasure. I have my Bachelor's degree in the science of psychology and my master's in the arts of psychology and both help me to be very knowledgeable and understanding of the aging process as well as dementia and Alzheimer's care.

Hello I have over ten years of caregiving experience. Being a professional caregiver is my calling and I enjoy being able to make a difference in my clients lives by providing the professional care they need . I'm a very compassionate person and caring and I'm also a dependable person and I am tru to my work as a caregiver. I have worked in nursing homes, assisted living and in home and when I'm connected with a client I treat them like family cause I feel that they are my family. What attracted me to becoming a caregiver is because when I was a lil girl I use to love to take care of my grandmother and always wanted to become a nurse or caregiver. I am proud to say that I feel like I achieved that goal as becoming a caregiver.
