I like to be there for someone that cannot care for themselves because it is not easy to live a life like this when you cannot do things for yourself that you may have once been able to and cannot now. I have been caregiving since the year 2000 and just have a compassion for people. I am a certified medical assistant and also earned a certificate of phlebotomy. I am currently working toward my associates degree and have one semester left to complete. I plan in the near future to take classes to be a licensed practical nurse. I have 5 kids that are ages 17 to 23. I have a chiweenie named neeko that is 4 and he thinks he is a real baby and so spoiled.

I don't look at caregiving as a job. I look at it as a service or ministry. I am honored that what I provide allows a person to stay in their home. I have developed many great friendships that carry on today. My clients become part of my family. They have my heart. I take great pride in what I do and I love meeting new families. I do my job with excellence and I take care of my clients like they were my own family.
