Hello my name is Destiny, I grew up in a tiny town in Pennsylvania & then also spent some time in upstate New York. I have been in the triad for four years now and live with my husband, step son, younger sister and two loving pups. I grew up with my grandparents, who both had disabilities and I had to learn at a very young age how to help care for them. My nanny has MS and arthritis, so I have had to care for her almost my whole life. My poppy, who unfortunately left us last September, suffered from COPD & chronic asthma. I knew very young that I had a love for helping people, as I would spend a lot of my time in early&high school volunteering at our local elderly communities. Growing up with older people taught me patience, kindness and compassion. Unfortunately I have had to leave certain business because I did not agree with their beliefs and the way they treated their patients. My goal is to just try to help out others the way I needed someone so desperately to help my grandparents when I was young. I spent so much time worried about giving them the best care and I know others struggling with that as well. I just want to help others make there daily life less stressful and to see a smile from the person I am getting to help.
