About Lana

I've taken care of people in my family for several years so I turned it into a career choice. I also have three children to support even though I hate being away from them. Their father always told me I could make friends with anyone I meet. What makes this choice of career so great is I get to do one of the things I love most and make someone's day better by being there for them.

I just love being able to take care for others. It puts a smile on my face to be able to make someone else happy. It's important that I can make a difference in someone's life. I also enjoy building cherished memories. Growing up I took care of my great, great grandmother who had dementia and I was there for her until God called her home.
