About Alisha

Initially I became a caregiver to help out a friend who needed sitters to fill in for her while she recovered from a back injury but in the end I really became attached to the clients and I knew this was something I really enjoyed. But what I like most about the profession is the feeling that I make a difference in a clients life while working with them. I have clients in the past that treat u like a family member and that feels great! Now a personal achievements that I am proud of is raising my beautiful young daughter into the woman she is today. She went on to major in social work and I'm very proud of her. About me: I'm a very dependable, loyal, respectful person.
