Carol’s Bio
Your search is over! My name is Carol Anderson and I reside in Monroe. I believe, if given the chance, you will find my skills set and dedication will exceed your expectations. I am a retired teacher from the Princeton area having taught preschool through 8th grade. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am kind and nurturing and, according to my daughter, opinionated and talkative (lol!). For the past eight years, I have been providing TLC for seniors well into their 90's with varying challenges and/or degrees of mobility, and illnesses. I have provided anywhere form 3 hour daily care to multiple hours and overnight stays. Services provided have included, but are not limited to: bathing, dressing, personal hygiene, shopping, light housekeeping, laundry, cooking--I'm Italian and love to cook, feeding, medicating, playing cards, reading, writing, excursions and great conversations. I am a professional and also passionate about my second career choice which has been very rewarding. I am available M-F 8:30 to noon, after 6 in the evening (some overnights,if needed) and on Saturday and Sunday. References will be provided at time of interview.
