In 2010 I received the award for Best Foster Parent, with my Agency. I also received one in 2011. It has been a passion with me since I was very young to help others. .

Hi, my name is Alisha! I have 5 boys ranging in age from 1 year old to 19 years old. I've spent a lot of time caring for others and it's something I truly enjoy doing! I learn quickly and am eager to please those that I work for! I have been blessed to be a stay at home mom for most of my boys lives and wouldn't change a thing! I am a PRO at organizing and love to do laundry! I love animals, dogs are my favorite. I did have the pleasure to care for my grandmother when she fell ill and I thoroughly enjoyed our extra time together and loved to help her with things she could no longer do herself... I'd love to build a lasting relationship with your family and help out wherever needed. With having 5 boys I have a ton of GREAT stories to tell too!

I have worked with Alzheimer's patients and those with dementia from the age of 19 to age 30. I started in Wisconsin as a caregiver for New Perspectives. In a couple of years I became the live in for this group home. I helped with all daily cares and medication administration. I later received my CNA license and continued to work in Colorado and later Texas I was also flight attendant in between this time. At the age of 30, we had our first child and I have been an at home mother of three children since 2004. I love those that are affected by Alzheimers and now that my children are getting older, would love to work with them again.
