About Leo

I am 18 years old and currently attending college. I have been passionate about caring for disabled individuals since I met a disabled boy in my high school and quickly befriended him. I worked in the Special Education classroom in my high school for 4 years plus summers. I am studying to become a special education teacher, specifically in a deaf school. I know American Sign Language and have worked with deaf clients. Though I am young, I have worked with a wide variety of ages, abilities, personalities, and needs. I am patient, perseverant, and observant. I hope to hear back from you soon.

I am a naturally caring person, who was raised by my grandparents, so I love and understand the elderly. I love hearing the stories of the past. I love getting to know the families and people involved in their lives. People are important and every person has value and a story to tell! I helped to take care of my grandmother as she was aging and I look back on that time w fond memories. Helping others stay in their home. Making someones life just a little bit easier can have great rewards. I took religion is college, of which I have 3 yrs. I have raised two children, and have been involved in my church over the years. I am now helping to raise two of my grandchildren which I adore! I am faithful and loyal, kind and gentle to others. I am honest and trustworthy.I love gardening, my grandchildren, and nature and all animals, especially cats and horses. In my younger years I was a CNA for about 10 years. Then helped my husband in the restaurant business for quite a few years, then went into janitorial at Hood River High Sch for awhile. I now have an additional 7 yrs (?) in caring for others. I love people! Now that I am a little older, I am enjoying taking care of the elderly and have a good understanding for what they need. I have been doing so for a number (10?) of years. I am a pretty easy going person to wk with.
