About Edwige

I am woman with a big heart at helping others. I am caring, compassionate, a good listener and very dedicated person. I became a care giver for the reason that i want to serve other people especially those that are not able to do things on their own because of age or medical restriction. There are so many things i like about being a care giver one of them being the trust that you build with people who are not family but eventually become one. One of the things i feel so proud of was being able to respond to an emergency when my client had a stroke which helped in saving her life.
