About Shawn

My name is Shawn and I became a caregiver over 22 years ago. I'am 40 years old. I became a caregiver because I loved to help my grandparents around their home with the things that they could not do on their own. I enjoyed helping other. I like being a caregiver because I love working with people, and I have a passion for taking care the elderly. Making my clients smile and live comfortable in their own home, that put a smile on my face. A personal achievement that I am proud of is, I graduated from college with my Business Associate Degree. in Business Management. I'am a Certified Nursing Assistant and a Certified Patient Care Technician. I have 4 kids, I love to read and spend time with my family and friends.
