Kala’s Bio
My now 87 year old Grandmother helped raise me and now I help take car of her. I help my aunts check in on her, prepare meals for her, and help with chores around the house. I have been a baby sitter for 4 years, and love people. I don't have much experience with taking care of the elderly except for my Grandma. I love helping people, and enjoy listening to my elders talk about the past. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am an Education/Special Education major at SUNY Plattsburgh and love children. I have cared for children with exceptional learning needs before. I would be the perfect fit for a family looking for someone to check in on a parent or grandparent. I can help with cooking cleaning, and driving to doctor appointments, on an as needed basis. I can help with basic hygiene: cleaning false teeth, brushing hair, and cutting nails. However, I am not capable of helping people in and out of the shower (I do not have the upper body strength to pick them up). I treat anyone I care for as if they are my own family, and try to build personal relationships with all the people I work with.
