Christine C. Care Companion in Sierra Vista, AZ 85635

I am a grandmother. Unfortunately, my grandchildren live far away, so I don't get to spend much time with them. I am the oldest child in a BIG family, so I love kids, and I have spent most of my life caring for kids. I have been a CNA and a caregiver in the past. My husband is a retired Navy chief, so I understand military schedules, etc. I have access to the base.

I am not young, but I am able to care for kids, or elder people. I am retired, but I volunteer each week at the local Salvation Army. I wash dishes/pots/pans, etc 2 days a week at lunch time. I have been doing that for about 1 1/2 years. I also assist after school on Tuesday, helping teach young people to cook simple dishes.

I live near the base. I am willing to watch children on/off base, or at my home. I have a small dog and kitten, and enjoy animals. I was a f/t caregiver at one point in my life for people from teens to a lady
who was 105.

I cannot lift really heavy objects. I am hard of hearing, but I have hearing aids. I can do regular household chores. I care for my husband, who suffers from Agent Orange. He is ok for now.

I have a college degree, I have lived all over the US, and in Europe. I have done a great variety of jobs over the years. Eg:, banking, accounting, substitute teaching, retail, caregiver, night auditor/hotel clerk. I was in the Air National Guard for 11 years, and repaired crypto communication equipment. I installed electronic switching for the phone company. My husband and I did foster care for almost a year for children 3-12, until we moved. My last f/t job, I worked as a bookkeeper/accounting administrator for 7 years.My last p/t job I was a caregiver for a 9 year old boy, as needed, in my home.

I love kids! I want a part-time job. I am able to drive, and have a car. And if an older person needs help, I can do it. If my jobs at the Salvation Army make a problem for my work schedule, I am a volunteer, and can adjust my days/hours.
