Well, I got involved in this profession after my mom died. I enjoy working with the elderly, it makes me feel good knowing they are able to enjoy being at their home and being cared for. My son is grown and I live at home alone so being with my clients keeps me occupied busy. I'm very patient and a hard worker, and I have 10 years experienced and had only two clients one I stayed and cared for 4 years until she passed and my current client I'm still with this will be my 6th year with her. After being with a client for so.long it's feels like we're family. I treat her as if she was my mamma.
