Caring Compassionate Companion

My experience has been with special needs children as a paraprofessional. However, the qualities needed to be a senior companion are similar. Patience and caring to help individuals enjoy their quality of life and maximize their potential transfers across all ages.
I've been working for two years taking care of children with certain needs. I'm a very responsible and kind person, so I think I'd be a good fit for caring for someone else.
