Profile
If there is one thing I am certain about myself, it is that I love to care for others. It is my weakness and it is my greatest strength. To know that another person's wellbeing and comfort depends on you is the greatest responsibility I can think of. I do not take caregiving lightly. I do it with all of my heart and it is my joy to see a smile on someone's face, to know that I had a hand it putting it there. I have experience caring for older family members and working as a caregiver professionally. I have worked with clients who were recovering from surgery, who were battling Alzheimer's and clients with transfer/mobility needs. I have learned about the thin line between client and family, and I have crossed it many times without regret. This is what I like to do. I am a Caregiver.
