Jeff’s Bio

I am a retired professional. I presently work for a tennis academy assisting children from Ages 4-15 in transportation and preparation for their tennis camp activities. I also give some tennis instruction. I also presently work for a company that employs me as a Caregiver/Companion for senior citizens in their homes. I provide companionship and assistance with the senior's chores, errands, light housekeeping, medications, shopping and activity exercises.

Prior to these positions, I was the primary caregiver for my eldery mother as she battled cancer. I assisted Hospice of the Valley in providing for all of my mother's daily needs for almost 2 years.

I became a caregiver after my mother's death to honor her by helping other seniors and children who need assistance, friendship and help with chores or activities. I also relish helping children because it reminds me of how I assisted my 2 sisters in raising their children and happily being called into duty as a babysitter, driver, companion and homework helper.
I enjoy helping seniors because I was taught by my parents to respect and learn from our elders. Whether I am helping children, teenagers or seniors, it gives me great satisfaction to see the smiles on their faces, knowing that I have done something good.

I am excellent at what I do because I am compassionate, caring, thorough and respect the needs and wishes of the people for whom I render care. My father was a physician. Growing up in a doctor's household truly gave me an appreciation for helping others.
