About Me
With my almost 10 years of experience working with seniors I would like to say - that's what I love to do. I am very good listener, patient, full of understanding and compassion. It's wonderful if by any chance I can make a difference in your life, by being a companion, friend, helper, going for walks to the park together, reading a book, talking about history of art, listening to classical music, or maybe baking cookies on a rainy day...
I am dependable and trustworthy. Some seniors, I have taken care of, were suffering either from dementia or alzheimer or were diabetics - I was able to provide proper mental exercises/diet for them. I have a good knowledge about nutrition and healthy lifestyle - worked for naturopathic institute and learnt a lot. Also, I have an experience in successfully feeding persons with Dysphagia. During last four years I took care of a lady in a wheelchair, taking her outdoors, for lunches, dinners, doctor's appointments, feeding her, as she wasn't able to do it by herself.
I take my duties very seriously - my work is my life!- Education: Graduate degree
