First and foremost, growing up, my oldest brother had Epilepsy and my youngest sister suffered from a developmental disability; therefore, I understand the challenge and rewards that come from taking care them. I gained valuable experience by caring and sharing part of my life with them. My compassion and unconditional love comes from the love of my brother and sister. I also worked in the special needs class of the Upper Elementary in Catoosa Public Schools as a substitute teacher's aide for a year. Following that, I worked as a caregiver for a special dear sister to me for 12 years. It was so sad when I left; however, we still get together with her and her parents. I built such a connection to the family that they became my American parents. They are a lovely family that I adore and cherish! If you will check under my references for housekeeping, you will see that my adoptive American mother gave me a reference that you want to read. Should you have additional questions, she is available for you to contact upon request, together with other clients I had in the past. I strongly believe that I can be of service to you and your family. I am a firm believer in that you cannot care for special people and not have the utmost in love and care for them. They just melt my heart and make me happy to know that I am there to help them. I know that with time, they will be as thrilled as my dear sister still is with me.
