I live in Northwest Seattle and seek part-time caregiving work. I am patient, kind, and have a wide range of interests. Through my dad's loss of his robust health, I learned about the great need for caregivers and how nuanced it is to bring someone into your home. You want someone who fits your situation! Experience: I helped an elderly woman who broke her hip and relocated from out-of-state to find her way through these changes in her 89th year. I helped my dad, a retired physician, adjust to dementia and declining physical abilities (see below list of skills I learned through caring for him). In the front and back ends of life, we all need some extra help. I am looking to provide it on a part-time basis. Open to weekends, evenings, daytime. 3-hour minimum, but 2-hours around north Seattle.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
