About Uba

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello my name is Uba! (oo-bah) I am a bundle of light and experience dedicated to pouring my energy into souls that need some support. During my Sophomore year at the University of Oregon - Go Ducks! - I worked as a personal Caregiver for a very special individual diagnosed with Muscular atrophy in their teens. I attended to all his needs starting in the morning; from yummy food prep and buoyant bathing to comfortable clothing, and kind companionship. I worked with him for a fantastic two years, and in that time I gained a grandiose appreciation and respect for this much needed line of work. In my time, I have also had the opportunity to care for a non-neurotypical 5 yr old with cognitive impairment and low control of fine motor skills. Attending as his therapy assistant, physical trainer, character builder and a buddy. I grew in my patience and practiced playfulness. I am passionate to provide love and support to families of whom I know my presence can make a life-changing difference.

From the first day, Uba came through for us. He and my son bonded right away and developed a solid rapport. He is a very kind person and fit well into our household. He drove our son to appointments, learned from therapists what they were doing and incorporated that into his interactions with out son. He'd also step in and do little extra things when we couldn't keep up in busy times. We were sad to see him go as school demands and new schedules changed our needs. I'd hire him back if I could!
