About Pam

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello.. My name is Pam. I hope to find a job helping to make an elderly person's life more enjoyable. I am not looking for childcare but cannot find a place to change this. I care very much about how aging folks are treated. I have always reached out by going into nursing homes to sing at Christmas with my church. I also took my children when they were small, to visit at various times. I participated in playing piano and visitation every Friday night for years. They loved the music and it was so gratifying to see them happy over even small gestures. I've had experience with an Alzheimer's patient as well.. staying 3 days including overnights, helping with all personal and household matters. Also care for my Dad who is 92, twice weekly. We go out to eat, grocery shop, bank, and barber. So I truly realize what it's like to become so needy and lonely. I hope to make a difference in someone else's life.

Pam watched 3 of my kids for a very long time until they were old enough to watch themselves. She always went above and beyond for my kids. She picked them up from school, would watch them when I would go out of town and would help with chores around the house. I was very grateful for her child care.
