Hello and thank you for stopping by my profile. I worked high risk OB for more than 10 years, I am a (young) retired Midwife. I worked doing at home care while going to College and really enjoyed helping care for others that needed help and otherwise would probably not receive great care. I believe in treated everyone with all abilities with autonomy and respect. The autonomy aspect becomes even more front and center when working with those that have a limited amount of things they are able to express it. I am a laid back and patient person, I enjoy being active but can also sit and offer companionship. I enjoy cultivating independence (when appropriate) and getting to know people, finding their nuanced needs and making life the best it possibly can be. I can help with all aspects of ADL's and incorporate any other needs you or your family may have. I look forward to talking with you soon!
