About Leslie

I have been a caregiver off and on for 20 years. I first got into the field as a DSP when my oldest child was born with autism so I could learn how to help him be as independent as possible. When he went to school I got my CNA and worked in nursing homes until I married and had my other children at which time I became a stay at home mom. . After my other 3 children were in school I went back to work as a Home Health Aide and DSP. My favorite part of being a caregiver is seeing the person I'm working with gain or retain skills that would be otherwise be lost or unknown.
