Hello, my name is Laurie. I'm the mom of two adult children and the grandma of two beautiful grand kids. I've worked in the private sector for over 25 years. I worked in convalescent care as a Senior Nurse's Aide several years ago. I worked as a Medical Assistant and went back to school to refresh skills and earn a certification as a Clinical Medical Assistant. I've worked most recently as a Medical Patient Services Rep as well a Customer Service Representative. I love kids and would really like to find a family that needs kind of a grandma figure around. I know how valuable this can be, as I had a grandma figure while my own kids were little and I worked full time. I can do errands and provide transportation to and from school, appointments or activities. I can provide "Weekly Outings" if that is something requested. I have a heart for the elderly as well, and enjoy their company as much as other age groups. I have volunteered through a local college theater, our performing arts center, and church storehouse to feed the poor. I have also been fingerprinted and background cleared to volunteer for a state wide program for kids in Foster Care. I am currently in the process of volunteering for Hospice one afternoon a week. I had a background check run for my posting on this site as well. I am ready to work in a position that is helpful to others and rewarding to me. I would love the opportunity to meet and discuss your needs and see if we are a match! Thank you for reviewing my profile.

    I've known Laurie since our teen years. She cares for others to a degree that she forgets about her own needs and wants sometimes. She always looks for ways to volunteer her help and services with friends and strangers. She started working early in life at a Convalesant Hospital, which is mentally and physically hard. She's always there to bring a smile and give comfort when you need it. Laurie makes me laugh (which is my best medicine) when I don't think it's possible. I'm so very happy to have her in my life! I'm thankful for the day we met. She's an asset to this world.
