To prospective families: My name is Amy and I am 38 years old from Dundas, Ontario. Please consider me for the position of a caregiver/companion for your loved one. I am a very compassionate and friendly elder care provider, looking for new clients. A little about me, I graduated from Recreation and Leisure Services from Mohawk College. While there, I gain the knowledge and skills needed to work with the elderly and different types of disabilities. From there, I worked at St. JosephÕs Villa in the Day program, planning and implementing different types of programs for my clients. They ranged from early 20Õs to the late 90Õs, some of which had early set AlzheimerÕs, Stroke effects, visual impaired and as well as clients with Acquired Brain Injury. It was a rewarding job and I loved what I did. Eventually, my contract ended and I became a caregiver to an elderly woman once she moved into a Retirement Home. I would take her to the grocery store, pick up her medications and take her to the doctors, just to name a few daily requirements for her care. Today, I work part time with a man in a Retirement Home that has Down syndrome. HeÕs 59 and he lives with his mother. During time with him, we go for outdoor walks and when it gets cold, we walk indoors, ride the stationary bikes, play a variety of different games and activities to keep him busy and entertained. Also, we go on outings to the grocery store, and bowling among other activities outside the retirement home. If you are looking for someone to act as a companion, and provide a safe and fun environment, please consider my services. I look forward to hearing about you and your loved one and how I can help care for your family.
