In the past 3 and 1/2 years I have had five long term assignments with gentlemen ranging in age from mid-30s to 99. These assignments lasted anywhere from six months to two and one half years. During these times I have never missed an assignment. A typical shift is four hours three days per week. Assignments have ranged from 1 day per week to six days per week and 4 hours to 8 hours in duration. I pride myself on being prompt and typically arrive 10-15 minutes early. My professional background is a Special Education teacher and a Special Education School Principal. I worked for five years as an adaptive physical education teacher with blind, deaf and mentally challenged students from a residential facility. I maintain an active physical regimen, mostly swimming laps at a local pool. I am a former marathon runner and triathlete. My driving record is flawless. I am current with covid vaccinations. While in Graduate School I was a live in care provider for a man with Multiple Sclerosis.

    Alan has been a valued support for our son. He is patient and calm; reliable and attentive. We are very sorry to lose Alan as he has decided to move on. Any family would be lucky to have him provide care to a loved one.
