Dec 2010 - Nov 2011

Parent / Mother

I am a recently divorced older lady. During my divorce I lived with my 92 year old mother for a year. During this time period I helped her daily. Food shopping , cleaning the home, monitoring her medications, driving her to various physician appointments. Mom had a walker and severe arthritis and also was a cancer survivor having full mastectomy at age 90. Mom also had lost most of her hearing and vision as well. I am being honest here , I was married for 22 years to a family Physician and helped him start up two private practices , one of which is still flourishing . I have two young adult children and need to re-enter the work force. I love people , esp. the elderly because they have so many great life experiences to share and I respect this so very much. I am going to some how get certified as a CNA and choose this because I truly enjoy helping others .

I understand that a lot of trust, respect and care is what caregiving is all about. I'm a culinary trained cook, so I can pretty much create whatever is desired and/ or craved. I have my own insured vehicle w/ an impeccable driving record as well. I have had many clients that have been very happy w/ my services, I also have many satisfied families who can attest to my unique quality of care. My hobbies are hiking, going for drives, most sports, definitely cooking, listening to music, reading and watching good movies. I'm an excellent w/ conversations and a good listener as well.
