I am an active Sr. Citizen who has raised our 7 children, now all grown. I enjoy my own grandchildren, now, and have continued seeing them and helping look after them while parents are working, for weeks at a time. Because I have this extended family, I need to travel to see them a few times a year. I would like to find a job, whether with childcare, housekeeping (or both), or Sr. caretaker and/or housekeeping on a part-time, or temporary or full-time basis. I would love to have at least 5 or more hours a week. I am very patient and kind, but priority would be to make sure that children I am looking after are always safe, and get their adequate nourishment and sleep daily. A clean house is important, but does not top the safety of the children's care. I prefer to watch no more than 2 children (3 maximum) at home. If looking after an elderly person, patience and communication is always important for their well-being. I can cook, sew, knit, play piano, play (board) games, reading, go for walks (pending on weather). For children, I like to help them with crafts, their learning tools (reading, printing/writing letters, numbers, etc. ) and play games with them. I do laundry, ironing, dishes, dusting, and very light housework. My employer should discuss with me what she expects to be accomplished daily; generally, if I see work, I tackle it (if time permits) without needing to be told, unless employer only wants certain duties done by me. I don't mind pets, but don't want to be watching/monitoring more than 2 animals per household, (especially if there are children, already in the home). Many pets are needing attention like a child would, so would make the workload heavier for me. I am available immediately, and that would be from May, 2021 onward.. Thank you for reading my profile, and Best Regards, Donna G.

I look after my own home/maintain cleanliness in bathrooms, vacuuming, dusting, some window washing, sweeping, dishes, garbage removal, laundry, some cooking, kitchen maintenance, tidying, straightening, bedmaking.
