I am a Certified Personal Trainer, and for the past 20 years, I have also worked as a personal support worker. I know that one of the most devastating things that can happen to a senior is a fall - I can help with building muscle, balance issues, mobility and stability; all the things that can help you or your loved one live longer, stronger, and independently. I've worked with children, adults and seniors, with and without disabilities. I have a lot of experience with cognitive differences and working with people with injuries. I run my own personal business for women over 40: www.kwpersonaltraning.ca I know that seniors can't typically fill an entire hour with strength training, as such, I fill the time by providing personal care, support and companionship, cleaning and food prep. This is a two-in-one deal. I will also provide updates to family members if desired. References and current record check are ready, I have liability insurance and CPR and First Aid. I am a certified personal trainer and a psw!

I come from a family of four and, as the youngest, I've always had a propensity for helping others. Once I was old enough, I received formal babysitting training and began offering my services to nearby neighbours. This inclination further led me to find employment at a daycare in high school, and subsequently, to work at restaurants and pubs. After experiencing the joys and challenges of motherhood, I decided to assist others in an even more meaningful capacity. To achieve this, I undertook a Health Care Aid (HCA) course in Chilliwack, BC in 2010. Currently, I live in Waterloo with my partner and adult child. In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, reading, solving puzzles, taking nature walks, and practising meditation. Over the years, my altruistic inclinations have allowed me to assist people of all ages, from newborns to senior citizens as old as 104. This lifelong commitment was also evident in my elementary school years when I took care of a disabled girl, an experience that expanded when her family entrusted me with the care of all three of their children. Indeed, I take pride in every job and career path I've chosen thus far, all of which have centred around helping others. My expertise is particularly notable in dementia care, rooted in both personal and professional experience. Not only have I cared for multiple clients with dementia, but I've also had firsthand experience caring for my mother and uncle who battled the condition. Furthermore, I've served clients suffering from ailments like ALS, Parkinson's, and Multiple sclerosis (M.S.). This isn't just a job or a career for me; it truly is my calling, and I absolutely love helping people. I have worked for Nurse next door in British Columbia, an d for my own company for over 5 years also in BC, now expanding into waterloo, ON

My name is Judith. I'm a young lady who's looking for employment, particularly one that enables me to provide support for those who need it most. I have a strong affection for the elderly, primarily due to my fondness for my late grandfather. I have only had one previous experience working with the elderly, my dear friend John. I helped him with various tasks around his home; including cooking, offering companionship, attending to his personal care, housekeeping tasks such as mowing the lawn, vacuuming, washing dishes, building fences and much more. Working with John made me realize how much I value our senior citizens and their presence. I love being around them for their insightful wisdom and the way they help us to appreciate the importance of life and living in the moment. I hope you will give me the opportunity to serve as a caregiver/companion. I am currently living with a 74-year-old elderly man whom I occasionally help throughout the house. I take care of tasks such as cooking meals, providing companionship, cutting the lawn, and more. I also assisted him with building a fence over the summer, which was an amazing experience. I love working with the elderly because they are kind and deserve a good companion, which I am able to provide. Additionally, I enjoy learning from their wisdom.

How much does a senior caregiver cost in Kitchener, ON?

The median requested hourly rate among senior caregivers currently listed in Kitchener is $20 per hour. Actual rates vary depending on the caregiver's experience, qualifications, schedule and responsibilities. Companionship may cost less than specialized dementia care, overnight support, extensive personal care or nursing services. Families using NannyServices.ca can compare requested rates and communicate directly with caregivers before deciding whom to hire.

Hire a senior caregiver directly in Kitchener, ON?

NannyServices.ca is a marketplace rather than a traditional elderly-care agency. Families can browse senior caregiver profiles in Kitchener, ON, compare experience and requested rates, contact suitable candidates directly and decide who best matches their needs. Hiring directly can also avoid some of the additional costs associated with agency-based elderly care. Before the caregiver starts, agree clearly on: - Duties and responsibilities - Working hours - Hourly or monthly pay - Transportation expenses - Overnight expectations - Holidays and cancellations - Payment method and frequency Clear expectations at the beginning can help avoid misunderstandings later.

Can government-funded home care be used to hire a caregiver directly in Ontario?

In Ontario, some eligible seniors and adults may qualify for self-directed or direct-funded home-care programs that allow them to choose and hire their own caregiver instead of receiving all care through an agency. For eligible clients, this can provide several important benefits: - Choose your own caregiver - Create a schedule that better fits your needs - Have greater continuity of care by working with the same person - Pay the caregiver directly, where permitted by the program - Make approved care funding go further, because less of the budget may go toward agency fees and overhead This can mean receiving more hours of care for the same approved budget, depending on the rules of the program in Ontario and the caregiver's direct rate. NannyServices.ca helps families find caregivers in Kitchener, Ontario who may be suitable for direct employment. Eligibility, funding amounts and permitted expenses should always be confirmed with the applicable home-care program in Ontario.
