About Salome

I became caregiver because I have passion for putting others first. Seeing someone happy, safe and fulfilling life is enough to make it all worth. It all started when my step father became ill before God called him. It was hard on my mother, so I took care of him till the end, and I saw the happiness and love he felt during that time.After his passing, I decided to get my license in order to help putting the same happiness and love to someone in need. What I like about being a caregiver is to make small changes to someone everyday life and also watching the smile emerge and hearing their laughter is enough to make a difference. My personal achievement am proud is putting myself in school to further my education in respiratory therapy. I'm respectful 31 old lady and very humble, calm person. A student and a lovely mother. Compassionate in nature and also like to associate myself with people. I enjoy helping people in order to feel good and expertise in pacifying and offering emotional cares. I like spending time with my family on my spare time and enjoy cooking.

Caring for others has always been a passion of mine. Not only am I great at gaining the trust of others, but I am a very reliable and dependable person. I enjoy helping people live happier and less stressful lives. My favorite part about being a caregiver is seeing someone accomplish something he/she never could before and seeing that person feel proud because of it. A person achievement I am proud of is maintaining a level of patience that is very uncommon these days, especially when it comes to assist those with intellectual disabilities. I am a 25 year old young lady who enjoys the simple things in life like seeing the sun shine brightly everyday or spending time with family while watching a comedy movie and pigging out on pizza. I love the beach and reading. I currently reside in Summerville, SC but I am a California girl at heart. I am also a hard working student at Trident Technical College. I do not currently have any children but I do enjoy them. I sometimes smile uncontrollably so be careful because it can be contagious!
