My name is Carol. I am a 36 year old wife and mother of 3. I have been a caregiver for children of military families in the past, for 8 years. I was also a caregiver for my father who is now going through his 7th year of pancreatic cancer. Having family in the military and knowing that their schedules are not always consistent, I built a care system that allowed military families to have comfort in knowing that their children are safe while they are away working. I am compassionate, attentive, patient, and dependable. I have an understanding of how some may feel while needing the help from others, which is why I have the confidence to help others and being very supportive to each individuals needs. I am trustworthy, dependable and love to keep communication open with those around me. With my husband and I both able to make our own schedules, I have the flexibility to be there when you need me. What I love most about being a caregiver is the relationships I am able to build and knowing that you have someone you can depend on. A personal achievement I am proud of is putting myself through school, while pregnant and working full time, and now I am establishing my own business, while still being able to help others.
