Catherine’s Bio
"INTEGRITY" best describes me in one word. "COMPASSION" would be the 2nd word. I have been a caregiver for over 25yrs to children, seniors and our beloved pets. I consider myself a nurturing, fun, smart & reliable caregiver. I truly LISTEN and care about what YOU NEED & also bring a much needed sense of humor with me. I try to encourage mild physical therapy if allowed, along with mental stimulation by playing any kind of games or cards. Music & gentle massage can also bring a huge benefit. I have been complemented on my cooking & can offer a huge variety. Personal note: We have 5 adult children (college grads), 2 precious dogs and I am CPR certified because of my Dental background of 15yrs in both clinical & mgmt. I can provide excellent references and look forward to speaking with you soon.
