    My interest in caregiving started at an early age. Every sunday after church I would visit the sick and shut in members and others who requested prayers. I then attended a Medical Specialty High School and was involved in volunteering at local Adult Day Cares. When I was about 15 years of age my grandmother started developing Dementia and shortly after had a stroke. I became her main caregiver; cooking, cleaning, reading to her when not in school. I love the fact that I get to make a difference in someones day to day life. I tried many different ventures and always ends back into caregiving. This is what I'm meant to do and I'm good at it and enjoy doing it.

    Being a caregiver is an important job , and responsible for the care and the well being of others , my client is my number one priority. I have the compassion and empathy ti helping and caring for my patients. I love providing help to others that cannot help themselves, I have always enjoyed meeting new people give myself 100% service by putting all my effort to put a smile on their faces show them that they are not alone. I enjoyed the opportunity to impact clients life be there for them to make a difference to them and be a part of their family as well. I never had any complaints from my patients which is one of my personal achievement that I am so proud of and I am always on time at work never call out in case if I have an emergency. It takes a lot to be there for someone and show them the appreciation that they not alone they are love and will always be love.
