About Latesha

Caregiving is not only my profession but it is my passion! I started caregiving as a way to help out my family and after loving it and being completely full filled I took on the task professionally. I enjoy taking care of those who have taken care of us all and look as it as uplifting my community. I enjoy making connections with families and learning from my clients and hearing their stories. I am a busy body and I believe in going that extra mile when it comes to completing my job. I enjoy cooking and meal prepping and I am very organized and clean. I believe in following all of the guidelines set by the family and physician as the care of my patients is my top priority. I have amazing references and look forward to working with my next family.
