About Desiree

My experience includes working with people who need assistance with all daily living skills, young or elderly. Most of my clients have needed med management, meal prep, light housekeeping which includes doing laundry, and companionship. I have been told that I am an excellent companion, and that I like to keep my clients as active and happy as possible. I am looking for full time, 5 to 6 days a week, anywhere from 5 to 9 hours a day. My rate is negotiable and I am fair. I look forward to hearing from anyone that is interested in my profile to discuss or answer any questions, my resume and references can be emailed. I can be reached at ############. Thank you.
