About Velma

I worked in a Woman Battered Shelter for a few months,i had so much compassion and love for those women and their children. A month after my volunteer work at the shelter, I got a call from a former co-worker about a caregiver job with an elderly lady and from that day forward I knew that this was what I was called to do. I'm a very compassionate and caring person. My heart is in my work as a caregiver. I'm a good southern woman.
