I am 35 years of age. I became a caregiver because when I was younger my grandmother became very sick and her kids & my family out her in a nursing home. I don't think anyone should have to go into a nursing home if they have family so I wanted to be able to help people to keep their loved ones at home. I'm a great caregiver because I look at all of my clients as my family. I love being a caregiver because I get to meet new people and I make sure they know that they have someone. It's not the end of the road....regardless. I love being a caregiver but I really love being a great mother. I have 4 boys and I really love my kids and they are the reasons why I do the best I can do with everything that I do
