I became a caregiver at a young age dealing with a brother with developmental disabilities... as I turned of age to find my own career path I always ended up in the same line of work... I have worked with children with developmental disabilities also adults... I have experience in alzheimer's and dementia care and I take pride in the bond I tend to build with my clients and their families... It is very important for me to really understand my client and their needs... understanding the client is not always written on a piece of paper, it means getting to know them personally, asking questions, paying attention to daily habits and routines. I love my work and my clients!
