Empathy, patience, kindness and respect are what makes me a great caregiver. I have been caring for seniors for 7 years, 20-30 hours per week. Caring for my own father when he became sick made me realize that caring for others brings me joy. I make and drive to Dr.'s appointments, beauty parlors, mass on weekday mornings, visits to friends and family, matinee performances. I can do a roller set, and love to do hair and makeup. I try to be as flexible as possible with extra hours and weekend care if necessary. I will do light housekeeping. I am a trained chef and love to cook and shop for groceries. I'm also an artist and am happy to bring supplies and do creative activities. I love to read aloud, listen to music, play cards, watch movies and keep the person under my care engaged. I'm a very positive and patient person. I have a safe, clean car. Being a caregiver is the perfect compliment to my artistic and musical endeavors. I'm interested in working 20-30 hours per week.

We hired Carolynn to take care of my aunt for full days. She cooked delicious meals and took her shopping and to doctor appointments. She is personable and extremely caring. While working she spent as much time as my aunt desired by her side, just keeping her company.
