Kourtney’s Bio
In 2013 my grandmother was diagnosed with dementia along with arthritis and diabetes. She needed a full time care giver and I gladly quit my job as a bank teller to take care of her. She quickly lost most of her mobility and many days I would have to pick her up to change her and move her to use the rest room. I learned how to be patient and handle days when she was disoriented. I never thought of it as a job I thought of it as time with my grandma that I was lucky to have. I realize that not everyone is financially able to quit a job to take care of family members and I want to be the person they can trust to be there when they can't. I have an impeccable background, driving record, and references upon request. I'm c.p.r certified and safety trained for minor bruises cuts and sprains. Thank you for considering me and the last thing I'd like to leave with people is I want to be the extended family you need, I will be the person who helps you sleep knowing your family is safe and taken care of.
