About Yolanda

Because my grandmother got sick with cancer and I had to take care of her. Being able to help someone, take care of someone, serve someone made me feel good making them smile making them happy. I have worked in this field for eight years and in those eight years I have moved up to management I have got a certificate for passing meds I also went back to school in hopes of becoming a nurse. I'm a mother of six and a wife I graduated from high school I completed some college. I am very compassionate, a quick learner I love to serve people I'm very considerate and independent.
