Moved to Austin on May 5th 2010. Begin as a certified substitute teacher at Dripping Springs High School in Dripping Springs, TX in August 2010. I'm ending my employment as a sub on May 30th. I have been wanting to get in the caregiver career for awhile now. I took care of my mother for the last yr if her life. She was confined to a wheelchair for the last few months of her life. I'm very tender hearted and I'm a great listener. I will make my clients happy. I'll be there for them to talk to and take care of all their needs. I will do the tasks needed in the home. I will make sure my client is happy and contented. I'm very patient and I've learned how to deal with so many situations in my teaching career. I will create s bond with my client and let her know that I'm always there for her. I'm healthy and energetic. I'm divorced and live alone. I will be all you want me to be.
