I had volunteered at a healthcare facility for the elderly, when I discovered how much I love this line of work. I love hearing their life stories, meeting their families and caring for them one on one. I have worked in the Dementia unit and as a companion for the others. My father had a stroke several years ago which I in turn ended up being his full time caregiver. I believe there couldn't be any job more fulfilling than caring for elders or children. I am a natural born caretaker with a lot of patience and a calm demeanor. I happen to be a yoga teacher and specialize in chair yoga for seniors. I have a current background check and motor vehicle driving record for your review. I will be happy to provide it . I am fully vaccinated.
Lea made such a difference in the quality of my mother's last years of life. As my mother's full-time companion from March 2011 through July 2013, Lea always went the extra mile to bring her joy and make her feel comfortable at home or whenever she took her out. She was amazingly patient and compassionate, no matter the circumstances of my mother's declining condition. I could always count on Lea to be there for my mother, to follow any instructions I left for her, and to keep me well-informed about every day she spent with my mother. She also communicated well with the visiting nurses and other medical professionals attending to my mother. During that difficult time, I depended on Lea and soon felt as if she was part of our family. I highly recommend Lea as the very best professional companion care provider!
