A Great Babysitter/Nanny/Elder Care (Midtown West) Fantastic, respectable and mature woman with great references that is a skilled in the care of children and/or the elderly. Skills include cooking, laundry, cleaning and entertaining, accountancy and admin. I am a very young at heart 51-year-old British woman. I have been a nanny since moving to the USA nearly 3 years ago and thoroughly enjoy it! In the UK I was a doctor's asst. for many years where I acquired knowledge and certificates in first aid, CPR, Aphylaxis, etc., but unfortunately these will all be expired as they only last two years. I also did the basic accounts for the doctor's surgery and ordering and stock taking of drugs and medical supplies for most of my time there. I kept myself very busy and also worked part time for a 90-year-old gentleman as his personal asst. for about 2 years. I cooked for him, took him to appointments, shopped for him and accompanied him to social events etc. I also worked twice a month for social group for the blind in my area, organizing outings and activities. The group was primarily elderly and I gained a great deal working as a volunteer for this group. I am kind, patient and fun. I have loads of energy and love singing, reading and playing. I am the mother of three grown up children and three grandchildren and know how a busy family works and what might be needed. I am a huge advocate of healthy eating and cooking good healthy food wherever possible. I am punctual, very well organized and efficient and can prioritize tasks well.

My father and I have known Laura for about 3 years. I am 50 years old with arthritis and my father is 92 years old with arthritis and other medical conditions. We employed her as a PA (personal assistant) for about a year. Her duties included housework, hospital appointments, shopping, bill paying and personal care (bathing and dressing and giving or applying medication). Laura is honest, caring and trustworthy person and we would recommend her any position that she should apply for. We were very sad to lose her and would not hesitate in re-employing her should the chance ever arrive. Should you require any more information please do not hesitate to ask.
