Catherine’s Bio
I am a 30 year old woman with a Bachelor's degree in Sociology and Women's Studies. I recently moved from Nashville to study art at the Appalachian Center for Craft in Smithville. I am experienced in childcare, eldercare, and as a companion for adults with disabilities.
I love working with people of all ages. I am reliable, responsible, and fun. I am happy to help with homework, housework, and light cooking. My past adult caregiving experience has included providing companion care to an adult with muscular dystrophy. This work included trach suctioning, dressing, transferring, personal assistance, and meal preparation. I also provided care to an elderly woman who was blind, diabetic, and used a wheelchair. This work involved dressing, toileting, bathing, transferring, meal preparation, insulin injections, and companionship. We often took walks/rolls in the nearby botanical garden.
I get along well with just about anyone and I am comfortable with pets. I am happy to provide references upon request.
