Colleen’s Bio

I became a caregiver because I wasn’t old enough to take care of my grandmother and she wasn’t fortunate enough to have a loving and patient caregiver. I chose to work with seniors because most of the time people forget that their actual people with feelings and a mind of their own, though they need help now they weren’t always this way and I feel like for me I love hearing about all of the things they’ve accomplished in their past, love hearing their stories.
