Hi, I'm Leila, a passionate and energetic caregiver from Thunder Bay. Though I may not possess official caregiving experience, I've always found myself drawn to caring roles, be it caring for my siblings or relatives' children, which led me to pursue an education in nursing. Growing up as the second oldest among five children, I was often involved in looking after my younger siblings. I found joy in being their companion, taking part in their activities, and navigating the challenges that came along. From arts and crafts to sports, specifically hockey, I discovered my hobbies are adaptable to those I care about. I hold a CPR and First Aid certificate, I am well suited for emergencies. I'm confident in providing ambulation assistance, dressing and grooming assistance, running errands, patient positioning, bathing assistance, and even offering help with lifts and transfers. In addition, I have experience in health-related household chores, such as laundry, grocery shopping, and housekeeping.
