I have 40years of childcare experience, 8 years of elderly care experience, 20 years of caring for my severely disabled special needs child, and pet care since I was very young to current. I am able to do most any task you give me, and if it's something I have not done, I am willing to learn. I've cared for mentally disabled, physically disabled, and mentally ill individuals. I'm experienced with companionship and emotional support, Transportation (clean driving record), Medication Management, Meal Preparation, Personal Care, Communication with Medical Staff, housekeeping, and mobility. My skills and qualities include Compassion and Empathy, Patience and Understanding, Communication Skills, Problem-Solving Skills, Physical Stamina, and Organizational Skills. Please feel free to reach out to me, and ask me any questions. My goal in caregiving at any age is to bring joy to others and make life the best I can for each individual I serve. I have a huge heart and love people.
