I am 42 years old and a mother of four children, all grown. My oldest is 24 with a child of her own. I recently worked for El Mirador in Roswell New Mexico and had four clients that I cared for. My prior experience includes running a group home facility in my hometown of Asheville North Carolina caring for severe to moderate dually diagnosed autistic/MR. From being a mother to having been employed with companies that provide care I have experience in all stages of life. This includes end of life. I feel as if I'm well rounded and possess qualities from mediation between children to light nursing duties including experience with feeding tubes and immobile people. I'm laid-back, energetic, great at multitasking, don't mind to get down on the floor and roll around with the kids, keep your elderly parents or significant other company and provide help with daily Read more living skills. If you got somebody in your life that just seems a little difficult and have trouble finding somebody consistent I'm definitely the person for that. I have a knack for connecting with people and I've always been well-liked. I'm flexible in my hours but would prefer not to do any sort of overnight shifts if at all possible. I'm located here in Odessa but brand new to this area. My husband is an oilfield worker and we have decided recently to relocate here for his job. I lost three of my clients recently at the company I worked for in Roswell and after a brief break for personal recuperation I'm ready to go back to work and take care of your loved ones from age 0 to 100. My rates are reasonable and my service is exceptional. I look forward to meeting you and your family.
