About Tamara

Elderly sitting isn't just a job or career. It's being a care giver, but also being a companion. Being happy and having someone listen to and talk with you is something everyone needs. Family's can't always be there full time, stay overnight at patient's homes or around the clock in a hospital to look out for and assist a love one.

My name is Bonnie. I have been providing senior care for almost four years as a profession. Prior to that I took care of my mother in law, mom and father in law. I got attracted to care giving because of my late family members. I am a very honest and commutative person. I am a very strong Christian and my faith is everything to me. I believe the seniors deserve to have good quality care with a concerned care giver. I strive to do what is in the seniors best interests. I enjoy seeing my clients smile and laugh as their life is coming to a close. This brings such joy to me. I am most proud of that I have had many clients and they ask for me repeatedly to come back. I worked for Professional Sitter Service for nearly four years. While there I was sent to many clients and had one steady client for almost 18 months. I am still on a call in bates with the company but I have been privately sitting with a couple in Haughton since August 2017.
