I'm a fun, energetic 50-year-old with a background in caregiving and a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Special Education. As the guardian of my intellectually disabled son, I have years of experience with bathing, toileting, feeding, medication support, and mobility assistance. I understand the importance of dignity, independence, and companionship at every stage of life. Whether it's helping with daily routines, going on an outing, or sharing conversation, I bring patience, humor, and warmth to my care. I organize things for fun and enjoy making things accessible and within reach and safe for my loved ones. I'm available on a limited basis, as my son is my full time job-let's talk and see if I can fill in once in a while or do a one time care job. My motto is--let's make everyday moments meaningful and enjoyable! Weekday hours may be available including my 19-year-old intellectually disabled son or evenings/weekends may be possible.
