I love engaging with and helping the Elderly improve their lives in whatever situation they find themselves. They deserve joy, being treated with kindness and the chance to be continuing learners in their area of interest. I am a life long learner and enjoy learning from people who have had a lifetime of experiences and are able to share through developing strong relationships with and providing an open and caring environment.
I have current CPR and First Aid Certification
I have car insurance with 100/300/10
