    A little bit about me: I'm a God-fearing woman, proud patriot, & natural-born citizen of the USA. I possess genuine qualities and natural ability to be a care-giver. I'm experienced, punctual, trustworthy, compassionate, patient, humorous, & hard-working. I specialize in at-home hospice care as a private care-giver. References provided upon request. Additionally, I offer ADL services to seniors who are not on hospice, but might need assistance in different capacities. Listening, serving, being a part of my client's life story is an honour and a privilege. Let's do a puzzle together, take a leisurely walk, watch a good movie, or we'll read an exciting book together! I'll set the table, light a candle, and we'll enjoy a tasty meal that I've cooked up. It's not about me. I want to hear about YOU. What is important to you and to your loved ones? Maybe sometimes you just want me to sit beside you and hold your hand. Maybe you want to be left alone to watch tv while I'm studying in the other room. If you need me, I'm just a few steps away. I'm an excellent masseuse. It's good for blood flow and healing. I don't mind if your home is a little dusty. I'm a handy-dandy housekeeper! I love to organize and tidy. I have no problem with pets (as long as I'm not on their menu). I provide great animal care services. Sober living is my lifestyle. I am a non-smoker. I am also gluten-free. Dignity, honor and respect is my creed; smiles, hugs and laughter are free! Thank you for your time and consideration. Affectionately, Cindy
