Victoria’s Bio
I speak fluent English and Spanish.
What do you need from me? Watch a movie with? Some conversation? Motivate you to exercise, take a walk together? Prepare and share a meal? Help you with shopping and errands and appointments?
I can provide a wide range daily assistance and company to you, everything possible to motivate and enhance your personal independence and overall quality of life:
- Help you organize your schedule, activities, appointments
- Prepare snacks and make hot meals for you, keeping track of any dietary restrictions, medications, pre-surgery/pre-test purging-prepping
- Accompany you to clinic/hospital visits
I am more than happy to engage in conversation, card games, board games, reading together, puzzles, etc.
If you are mobile and your home is near a park, outdoor activities are certainly an option. Trips to the library, community center, museums, and other activities, in addition to accompanying you on errands or appointments.
I am willing to oversee and assist with bill paying, email correspondence, reminding you to call family and friends, reminding to make appointments and take medications.
Depending on time of day/night worked, I can also offer assistance with the bedtime routine, tooth brushing, readying next day's clothes, pajamas, medications, going over next day's itinerary, etc.
Light housework and/or errands: doing dishes, laundry, picking up dry cleaning, tending to pets/dog walking/gardening, food shopping, post office, help with getting to and from appointments such as doctor, stylist/barber, etc.
I am patient and understanding and have a pleasant personality. I want to help you stay independent, not isolated. I hope you can see me as a life-enhancing and helpful companion.
Once we've connected through SitterCity, I will be more than happy to share my email address and/or phone number so we can discuss your needs in further detail.
PLEASE NOTE: I do not drive. I do have a valid state identification and a valid passport, each with my photo.
