I became a caregiver to be able to take care of my mother. She had already had 5 surgeries before my 14th birthday. I wanted to be able to take care of her the right way. I love being a caregiver because i get to provide best care at a time when people are not at there best, plus I get to her all the great stories and meet all different type of people. Well i went to school to become a medical assistant to better my knowledge on how to properly take care of people. Then i graduated culinary arts school. I took both of the fields so that I can have the full medical and nutritional knowledge on how to take care of my client. I am a 30yr old woman that has been taking care of my mother since i was 11yrs old. I am free spirit that loves to spend time with all types of people.
