Sofia’s Bio
I am currently a college student pursuing a career in nursing. I have expierence caring for elderly people and people with special needs. I have worked with disabilities and diseases such as dementia, alzheimers, parkinson's, multiple scorosis, poor vision, hearing impairment, balance problems, cataracts, diabetes, and hypoglycemia. I have a sister with trouttes syndrome, a mother who is hypo glycemic, a grandmother with alzheimers, my god mother has ms, and my uncle has phocmelia. All these people I have cared for, for a very very long time. I am EXTREMELY comfortable around elderly people and people with special needs. I enjoy taking care of them. This includes things like combing their hair, giving them sponge baths, preparing meals, feeding them, distributing medications, taking blood for diabetic purposes, giving inciline, running errands for or with them, helping them get dressed, etc. If you or someone you know is in need of a caregiver I am confident I am your girl! Your loved ones are in good hands when they are with me.
