About Heather

Hi I am Heather I recently returned back to my favorite career. I took a break to start my farm and it is going very well. I raise AGH pigs along with chicken of various breeds. I now have enough free time to work as a caregiver again. I have worked in facilities and in home care. Home care is my favorite because clients are able to stay in their home. I love all aspects of being a caregiver it is very fulfilling. I really enjoy being able to help others. I have my OSBN CNA license. I look forward to caring for your family.
