About Alice
Experience: 3 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'd describe my personality as enthusiastic, genuine, and clever. I like caring for seniors because they always have something to teach you. You can create amazing relationships across generations if you approach them with a curious mind. I'm looking for a job that I can feel good about when I go home at the end of the day, and where I can feel like I've been of genuine help to someone. I started caring for seniors when I was a teenager and my older father had cancer. In recent years I've been a caregiver for a family friend with dementia. In my spare time, I like to attend plays and musicals, visit museums, watch movies, and spend time with my two cats. One thing you should know about me is that I'm not just there to do the job. I really enjoy getting to know people, having stimulating conversation, and really engaging in the spaces I spend my time.

Alice has the magic touch caring for animals..... and people! I referred her to my friend to care for her beloved elderly poodle while she was away and there are countless other experiences she has had caring for elderly, sick and skittish pets in difficult situations. And she is always amazing with my elderly parents (90 and 88) ... knowing just how to interact and entertain them. My dad has dementia and is often angry and difficult and she really communicates so well with them with care and compassion. She even gives them manicures and sings for them which they enjoy thoroughly. (Her repertoire has so many tunes from their era.) And she can be counted on to do whatever becomes necessary.
