Debra’s Bio

I've have been a care giver my whole life. It started with being a baby sitter, wife , children of my own than child care centers for ten years. I than moved on to working in the School district with children k-12th grade.
I became a Teacher Assistant Substitute working mostly with children with learning disability's ( ADD, ADDHA, Autism, burn victims, and the hearing impaired)
Although I have worked with several ages of children I also have swung on the other side of the spectrum. Many of my friends and neighbors are senior citizens who's company I have enjoyed every day and love to be with. Some of them have Dementia and Alzheimer's . I have also work with a women who had Multiple Sclerosis, COPD .
My youngest friend in the senior age group is seventy-four with my oldest friend being ninety- two. I have run errands , prepared meals, taken them to the doctors, gone shopping, movies and out to eat with them. Along with this I have helped with sponge bathes , showers also other personal care such as helping to style hair or go to the hair salon.
I generally enjoy all ages of adults both young and older. I have pleasant personality.
