About Lydia

I am a skilled Licensed practical Nurse with 29-20 years of experience in pediatric,adult as well as geriatric care in facilities and in home. My personal achievement is the fact that my job involve doing what I like the most, which is caring for those that are disabled, sick, injured or due to old age no longer can care for them self. What I like about being a caregiver is the feeling of joy, satisfaction and fulfillment I experience when my clients smiles and say thank you for making them feel better. As a mother, grandmother and a nurturer I am compelled to care for others especially those in need
