Deborah’s Bio

Hi Lisa, my name is Deborah. I am a 63 year old, retired BPS teacher. I taught for over 30 years in Brevard County. I am a widowed, empty nester. I have one fur-baby and she was a rescue. I do not know if you are open to having a female meet your job specifics or not, according to your ad.

I am familiar with elder-care and transport. My mom was 97 when she passed. She lived in FL and I provided her transportation to many of her appointments, I drove two siblings to or from school, in Merritt Island, depending on parents' needs, I have a BS in Business from FSU '81 and an ME in Educational Leadership from GCU '17. Additionally, I am a certified Grief Counselor from the AIHCP. I do not have any professional training as a care companion, other than personal experience with my mom.

Do you have a vehicle that 'fit' your dad, available for use? I have a car available, but not all cars 'fit' the same.

I look forward to hearing from you,
Deborah
