Hi! My name is Jessica. I have always loved caring for others. In high school I volunteered as an Emergency Medical Technician, and helped families in Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina, I have done volunteer earthquake aide work in Pakistan, and have spent a year volunteering at an orphanage in India. I have also used dance therapy to work with women in India recovering from sex trafficking and prostitution. I am lucky to have spent many months alone with my grandparents over the years before their passing and I have a deep passion for elderly people. I have seen hospitals and facilities be careless and inattentive to my own elderly family members and know how important it is to really be on top of any conditions and situations and to advocate for them when needed. I also work as a self-employed dance artist where I primarily show work in art galleries and museums as well as site-specific locations.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
