Right out of high school I received my preschool teachers certificate and my directors license, I have always loved children. I realized in my twenties that I also had a great love for befriending the elderly. So over the last 35 years I have raised seven children, ran a construction company with my husband had two side businesses of my own and volunteered with the elderly. Over the years I have been a companion care provider, assisting with transportation, doctor visits , hospital visits, rehab support, meal preparation, everyday chores, shopping, and even yard care. I have a love and respect for the elderly, I enjoy building friendships and have a passion to see them respected and taken care of with great quality. I have had training in home health care, in first aid, assisted living care, activities for physical well being,and cognitive well being.
