About Natalie

I am a single mother of 2 beautiful children. I am looking for a caregiver position to help people because it is personally fulfilling and I want to make a positive difference for someone through their hard times. :) Overall I have 8 years caregiving experience. My grandmother had Alzheimer's which me and my mother would help her daily and take shifts making sure she was properly cared for. It was very fulfilling and taught me a lot. My mother is now in her late 60's, has diabetes, mental disorders, among other conditions. She's recently had 2 knee surgeries and hip replacement which me and my 2 children helped her pre/post op to make sure she has what she needs to complete her daily tasks and fast track her healing. From physical therapy, going on walks with her stroller, doing laundry, dishes, picking up her apartment to ensure it's a safe environment with no trip hazards, dispense medication, grocery shopping, transportation, or even just playing a board game. As I said I thoroughly enjoy helping people and want them to be happy and enjoy life. Having 2 people whom I care for deeply on the receiving end of care, It is something I am very passionate about to ensure everyone has a companion, a lending hand and a positive experience. Hopefully I can get a chance to help make a difference here!

Home care

Home Care
Post and pre op surgery help for mother from knee and hip replacements, depression, anxiety, mood disorder, diabetes, vision, hearing. I help her with buying food/errands, make sure fridge is full and shes stocked up on toiletries etc, laundry, dishes, house cleaning, safety proofing for less falls and room for her walker, (the less clutter there is she feels better mentally too!) PT from her surgeries, card games, keep her company by talkingor watching something she wants to, motivate her to get involved with activities that are offered at her senior living facility such as bingo, swap night, bon fire talks, or just for us to get out and stroll to the mail box (sometimes just getting out helps then she eventually wants to go by pool after to look etc). Help her with calming mechanisms if she starts getting overwhelmed with bills or making payments etc.

15 years ago I was in desperate need of a caregiver for my mother. It was very difficult to find an honest, caring, trustworthy person to care for her. I went through several different caregivers, including a family friend that didn't work out for the job. I ended up quitting my job and caring for her till she died 9 years later. At this point in my life I want to be able to help someone that needs special care because I know the negative impact it can take on the entire family when the care of a loved one is not being met. I think the sick and elderly are at our mercy to care for them.
