Care Taker of Health Complicated Son/Handyman

Self-employed
Clarksville, TN
03.2020 - 06.2021

My son was born in January 2020, well before his due date.

We were at the NICU for several months with him on machines. Work had been slowing down anyway, and relationships were deteriorating, so my wife and I decided that we needed someone to stay home with our son, with his health and the pandemic in full swing. Luckily, we were able to make that happen since she had a decent job that she was finishing her last year at, and some money put back. During this time, when I've had spare time, I've worked with a friend of mine who does remodeling, as well as study my electrical materials.
