With a recent Practical Nursing course completion, I bring a wealth of healthcare knowledge adaptable to both adult and child care. Additionally, my firsthand experience nurturing my grandparents and my own children has honed my empathy and understanding of dignified care. Eager to provide compassionate support and make a positive difference in the lives of those I care for. I recently completed a Practical Nursing course in my home country, providing me with comprehensive knowledge of healthcare practices and patient care. While my training primarily focused on clinical settings, I believe the principles I've learned are applicable to both adult and child care services. Moreover, I have firsthand experience caring for my grandparents, which involved assisting with daily activities and providing emotional support. These experiences have instilled in me patience, empathy, and a deep understanding of the importance of maintaining dignity in care. I am passionate about offering compassionate care and eager to leverage my skills, knowledge, and personal experiences to positively impact the lives of those under my care.

Hello there, My name is Colleen and I reside in James Bay with my husband and our two rescue dogs. I am offering my services as a caregiver/companion to an individual who mostly requires help in the evenings and overnight. I can assist with meal preparation, laundry, cleaning, shopping, companionship, pet care, medication reminders, attentive listening, bathing, and toileting. My experience includes working with children, animals, and caregiving for my mother who had cancer. Though my experience might seem limited, I am a compassionate, patient, considerate, responsible, and caring person endowed with a big heart and common sense. I have always had a soft spot for seniors and the older generation - I consider myself to be an old soul who loves hearing stories and connecting with people. My husband, who is often busy with work and studying to become a commercial pilot, is usually home in the evenings with our dogs. I enjoy gardening, cooking, the outdoors, heritage sites, travel, animals and making cyanotype prints. I like vintage faires and tea. I have a son and daughter inlaw that live in Montreal. I'd be happy to talk to someone in need and would do my best to make sure that you are comfortable and feeling content and safe when I'm present. Kind regards, Colleen Home care for cancer patient.

I am a single 60 lyear old caucasian female. I grew up in a small town, love to travel, enjoying nature, cooking, DIY projects around the house, yoga, meditation, volunteering and listening to the radio when I am working around the house. I am fit and interested in a healthy back to basics lifestyle. I enjoy pets and meeting all kinds of people. I have been fortunate to have had several careers: dental assistant, in tourism, teaching and am looking to work in a meaningful environment and being of service. I was also fortunate to be brought up in a family in which: hard work, enthusiasm and gratefulness taught and valued. My paternal Granny was a career domestic and my mother was a farmers daughter - so resourcefulness, hard work and pride in a job well done were the skills impressed upon me at a young age. I worked as a live in caregiver for an 87 yo male with Parkinson's disease. I did daily duties such as cooking and serving meals, house cleaning and maintenance, pet care and provided companionship and live in care.
