About Caresa

I have always enjoyed tending to the needs of others. Being a caregiver provides me with a feeling of gratification, because I am making another person feel more comfortable. Whether it be a child, a person with special needs or an elderly person everyone likes to be treated with respect and compassion, and that is a service I can easily provide. One of my greatest personal achievements is that I graduated from Tarleton State University in 2008 with a bachelors degree in Human Science with an emphasis in Child and Family Studies while simultaneously raising my son. Both, being a mother and a student have been the most educational and rewarding aspects of my life. The central focus of my life is my husband and my two boys. My eldest son attends Henderson Junior High School and is active in Erath shooting sports, while my youngest attends Gilbert Intermediate school. He is quite creative, and shows a great interest in photography. My husband works in the oil field, and comes home every two weeks, which makes us all cherish that time together. As a result of my children and husband being older more self reliant, I have been left with more time that I feel, could be utilized by caring for others. Some of the hobbies I enjoy in my free time are; cooking, creating fun scrapbooks and embroidery.
