Summary

I grew up in a family with 10 children. I had to learn to get along and work and cooperate at a young age. I started babysitting to make spending money. In my senior year in high school I went to an elementary school to be a "teacher's aid". I have always enjoyed helping others and teaching them new skills. I love to play games or cards and just visit with people. I have been married for 44 years and have raised 4 children. I have 11 grandchildren and 1 great grand child. I think a job of light house keeping and meal making and just checking on the well being of an individual would be very gratifying for me and a way to help my communities. I would be ok with helping with toileting occasionally, but do not care to do more personal cares, such as bathing.
