About Sonja

I became a caregiver because I love helping others, especially the geriatric population who can no longer do for themselves. We will all become elderly one day ( God Willing) and I pray that everyone has the opportunity to live their life to the end fully and with dignity. I love taking care of others because I believe that is what God called me to do, I have a passion for helping people who can no longer help themselves and people who truly need help. A personal achievement I am proud of is obtaining my CNA license and now furthering my education to become an RN. I am a mother of a beautiful 4 year old girl, who lights up my world.

    My interest in caregiving started at an early age. Every sunday after church I would visit the sick and shut in members and others who requested prayers. I then attended a Medical Specialty High School and was involved in volunteering at local Adult Day Cares. When I was about 15 years of age my grandmother started developing Dementia and shortly after had a stroke. I became her main caregiver; cooking, cleaning, reading to her when not in school. I love the fact that I get to make a difference in someones day to day life. I tried many different ventures and always ends back into caregiving. This is what I'm meant to do and I'm good at it and enjoy doing it.
