About Lucy

I'm a 27 year old caregiver. I started in this field when I turned 18 years old. I chose this field because I grew up with my mom working in a foster home and seeing how much she enjoyed what she did made me want to go into the same field. Since being a caregiver what I love the most and take pride in is being able to put a smile on someone's face. Being that consistent reliability in their lives especially for the ones who don't have anyone to really rely on. The most rewarding part is knowing at the end of the day that I have made a difference in someone's life and it's what keeps me going. Yes of course there are stressful times but reminding myself why I do what I do keeps me going.
