About Joan

I grew up in a family of 10 and, being the 3rd to oldest, it came with a lot of responsibility. By 7 years old I could change, feed and put a baby to sleep. With this experience, came a sense of empathy for those in need. Caring for others has always been a morally rewarding task and I plan on assisting others for as long as possible. I'll be available in the 607 area until April, next stop is Kansas, in the vicinity of Lawrence. If you or someone you know needs care, please feel free to message me with any questions!
