About Kathryn

Hi! My name is Kathryn shull. I go by katie. I am a mother to a wonderful 8 year old boy. My whole life when people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up I always said I don't know I just know that I want to help people somehow. This is how I've decided. I took care of my grandfather the last few years of his life and since then have had a passion for this type of work. It's more than a job to me. Feel free to ask any questions!

Hi! I'm Danica. I just moved to San Antonio from Hawaii. I love interior designing and admiring old, classic, and modern architectures. I'd love to visit Netherlands, UK, Scotland, and Bali. A clean and organized environment makes me happy and calm. I enjoy small "DIY" projects and currently making our house feel like home.

I consider myself a good listener, optimistic, patient, and sensitive to other people's feelings and emotions. I like taking care of others because it reminds me of the time I used to take care of my grandmother and spend time with her either during good times or bad times. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is listening to others while I make myself available to help them. I am proud of having a psychologist bachelors degree.
