Meet the Preventive Care Coordinator:
Jessica is a Nursing Technician from Brazil and lives and loves Cape Town with a passion. She is married to Joshua for 6 years and they have cute kitten named "Samba".
What really inspired her choice to pursue nursing was to follow Gods call in helping and serving the families in the communities we work with, providing better and healthier choices for their children.
Our goal is to see every child we serve living long and happier by preventing things that could shorten their precious lives.
