About Lytonya

I became a caregiver because I enjoy working with people who are sick because I feel I can bring happiness into their lives. It is my mission to bring a smile and joy to the people I am charged to care for. I love being a caregiver because I am inspired by helping people recover. I enjoy assisting them to help them function in their everyday lives. I am proud my missionary work and I am currently a part of Newark Clergy this affords me the opportunity to go into distressed situations and pray for the family and the person who is in need. I have always loved to help people and it has been my mission many years to help assist people no matter where I go. This is my greatest joy and my, I believe, the purpose for my life. Daily, I make a difference in other lives even when I am not working. It is my calling, it is my goal to leave people better off then when I first met them.
