I am a wife, mother of 4, and registered nurse. I substitute nurse in an area private school. My belief is that I would make a terrific senior care giver as I have a dear love of elderly people . I would be most interested in daytime care that might include walking, driving to appts, shopping with or for and meal preparation as well . Pets are no problem. Limited to daytime and early eve on a part time basis.
