About Lakesha

I'm very caring and understanding, punctual definitely that I don't like when someone's late for me. I'm in love with what I do taking care of those in need or maybe just being a friendly companion that helps you get through the day with some tasks. I believe no matter the condition one is everyone deserves to live the best life for them. I love my family and I'm very attentive so I know what it means to a family member to be reliable and patient with their loved one. I understand the need to trust me with your loved one or self . I'm efficient and responsible with a happy bubbly spirit. I love music,art, dance, reading,puzzles and exercising. I'm always looking for a way to make the positive raise above challenging obstacles . I aim to give the best care in all situations no matter what you are faced with. I believe in promoting self independence with assistance even when it may not seem possible. I'm a proud advocate to the minds that are slowly depleting from Alzheimer's and Dementia's. To be a voice for those who are misunderstood to be the sound that helps them smile,live it's been a joy. This is not just about caring for people I become apart of them and their reality for the day, minute,hour as it might change within seconds. I aim to provide the best care to a person needs and build a respectable relationship during the duration of care. To make people comfortable and happy brings peace in knowing their getting the best care they deserve.
