About Cindy

I'm a very compassionate & happy person who cares about people. I'm very educated, trustworthy & dependable. I have a spotless background check by Caregivers & the state of California. I'm especially sensitive to older people who may not have a lot of support or companionship in their lives, or may be dealing with depression. I'm more than happy to provide non judgmental spiritual support taking people to the church of their choice and/or home Bible study. I'm also very educated in nutrition & natural organic foods. I studied nutrition in college but I've had a personal love for natural food & studied it for more than 15 years. I'm a firm believer that pets help people heal & be happy so I'm especially happy to provide full pet care for the animal lovers to make sure they can have their pets with them as long as possible. I'm 50 years old, strong & healthy. I was born & grew up in S. Cal. I'm happy to provide references.
