I began caring for my grandmother with a type of dementia in my early teens, and loved it. After high school I had a wonderful time working at a retirement community passing medication, assisting with bathing, performing incontinence care, assisting with diabetes control, recording vital signs and incident reports. I've completed my pre-nursing classes, and hope to study the field more in the future. I love the history, people, and lives that are unique to each individual I work with, and look forward to each new adventure. At this time, I'm staying home and assisting my two sweet boys and two precious girls with their studies, in addition to nannying for two families during the school week, as we study and play together. My weekends are pretty free right now, and afternoons/evenings. Not available to go to homes or drop off at my home.

I know Laura as a violin student and as a friend. Laura is one of the most Compassionate, Determined, and Capable young women I know! She grew up the oldest daughter of many siblings. She gave full-time care, and then Hospice care, to her aged grandmother. She has a heart full of compassion, care and concern, while being absolutely capable, dedicated and determined. She pursued her nursing degree with three young children. She is conscientious with a terrific work ethic. I am enriched and inspired to have her in my life! She will is a huge asset!
