Hello my name is Leslie. I have been a caregiver for 8 years, I started my journey with group home care with the mental disabled. Two years later I started elderly home care, making sure the elderly get a chance to stay in their own homes where they are comfortable is my pleasure. Taking care of the elderly is something I truly enjoy, letting them know they are not alone one day at a time. I can provide many different types of care, depending on the individuals needs. In 2016 I started my own LLC with the hopes of being able to provide more help to families by caring for their elderly family members. I have cared for indivduals in a wide age range and with many different funtion ability levels. No person is the same, I make a care plan to fit the indivduals needs. I like too keep the family as informed as I can about any changed I may see with thier loved one. I am elderly CPR / First aid and AED certified.

$12.00/hour · Delphi, IN
I became a care giver because I had several family members that needed help plus I cared for my late Husband at home for 3 years with Louies Body deminsia I love helping the older people with things they can not do by them selves At one time several years ago I was a CNA and loved it but didn't make enough money living on my own. I was really proud of myself by being able to take care of my Mother untill she passed and also was able to keep my late Husband at home up till the last year and he had no control of his muscles and had to put him in nursing home but I would be there every day from 7AM to 8PM after I got him in bed. I continued to give him his bed baths after they put him in the nursing home and was there to feed him every meal. I wanted something to do to keep busy plus help supplement my income. This is something I love doing and feel I would be very good at it. I would prefer something here close to home around the Delphi area if at all possible. I do not want to be a live-in but just caregiver to help with all needs as neccesary. I already have criminal back ground check my physical proof of insurance. Because I have applied for 2 other homecare jobs. Hoping to be hired by any homecare company
