    LaShonda has been providing care for my adult son with physical disabilities. She is very attentive to details. She attends to his daily needs of bathing, dressing, transfers, as well as cooking and feeding. We are thankful we found her and for the care she provides. My son appreciates her care and enjoys her company.
