After caring for and raising (on going ) 4 children I have learned that I am very good and comfortable taking care of other people. Helping other people to achieve their goals gives me a great sense of accomplishments, as though I my self completed the task or goal. I am a very patient and soft spoken person that really just enjoys helping others, whether it's cooking, cleaning or dressing them to help them get their day going or just sit with them and listen to their stories. I have never worked for an agency for home care but I do have some experience with care of my then Elderly Grandmother. She was confined to her bed or chair so I would go on a daily basis during the summer time to care for her, I dressed her, bathed her, cooked and cleaned for her until her daughter got home from work. Those days are some of my best memories as a teenager, being able to remember her tell me about her life and knowing I helped someone in big or small way made me smile.
