About David

Experience: 10 yrs

I am an American born English speaking 66-year-old male. I have 12 plus years caring for seniors with dementia, Alzheimer's and MS. My most current position was that of a companion for an 84-year-old man. Responsibilities included transportation to and from various activities and events, food preparation and help with all daily activities. I have my own transportation. I'm an excellent driver and I'm reliable. I also care for a 14-year-old Boy usually for 3 weeks when his Mother travels on business. Responsibilities include taking him to school, pickup from school, taking him to after school activities, preparation of dinner, light direction with homework, and companionship. Weekends might include basketball/baseball practice, the mall, hitting some golf balls, taking a hike, or going to the movies. I have been caring for him since he was 10. I have references if needed. Recently retired from working in NYC for 40 years.

David is an extremely kind and caring individual who took care of my father with Parkinson's as he indicated in his bio. He is punctual, dependable and extremely trustworthy. He drove my father to many doctors appointments and provided companionship, exercise help, toileting, dressing feeding...basically all activities of daily living. Sometimes he also drove my children to/from school and activities. I would not hesitate to hire him for you or your loved one's care.
