I am a reliable and organized individual with strong communication and interpersonal skills. I work well in fast-paced environments, manage tasks efficiently, and remain calm under pressure. I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and quick to learn new responsibilities. I take pride in being dependable, professional, and contributing positively to any team I am part of. As a receptionist at a retirement home, I am the first point of contact for residents, families, staff, and visitors. I consistently create a welcoming, calm, and respectful environment while managing the front desk and supporting daily operations. On every shift, I answer and direct phone calls, greet and sign in visitors, communicate important information to staff, and assist with scheduling, messages, and general administrative tasks. I help maintain resident records, handle inquiries from families with professionalism and empathy, and ensure the front entrance remains safe and organized. In addition to receptionist duties, I regularly assist with resident care and support. I help residents with medical and non-medical needs such as mobility assistance, escorting them to meals or activities, providing comfort, and responding to call bells when staff are busy.

Full-Time, Part-Time • Live-Out
I'm a 20-year-old student who loves working with people. I grew up in Sudbury in Northern Ontario. I'm the oldest of 3 sisters and have 2 cats back home. I'm of Scottish, Danish, Finnish, Irish, English, and French heritage. My family is fairly big and I have a total of 14 first cousins. I've been a dancer since the age of 2, and a competitive dancer since the age of 8. In September I will be starting at Algonquin College in the Bachelor of Early Learning and Community Development, which will also grant me my ECE diploma. I love working with kids and have done it for nearly 10 years now. However, I recently started a serving position at a retirement home and after observing other caregivers and companions with the residents, I became interested in that sort of position for myself! Above all else, I am a people person. I have great interpersonal skills, I'm honest, communicative, witty, and kind-hearted. I've been described as empathetic and sweet my whole life and have finally, humbly, accepted those compliments as facts. My hobbies and interests include singing, acoustic guitar, dance, makeup, visual art, video games, watching movies, baking, and photography. I have plans to grow this list even more, having recently taken an interest in pickling/fermenting foods, gardening, sewing, and yoga. I do care deeply about world issues but will only talk about them if you want to! I would love to be put in a position where I can discuss and maybe even learn about any of these or other topics! I believe older people deserve just as much love, attention, and fun as anyone else in the world! I hope to emulate this and become a good companion to anyone in need of it. Please message me if you'd like to talk and see where things could head! I currently work as a dining room server at a retirement home and find myself connecting with many of the residents, and thought I would be great in this kind of position. I also work as a daycare assistant, so while it's at the other end of the age spectrum, I am good at going from strangers to friends.

I am a goal-oriented and creative person with a higher education background and a passion for continuous development. My experience in online business helps me adapt to changes, find solutions to complex situations, and think strategically. However, my main priority has always been and remains my family. I am happily married, a mother of two, and a proud grandmother of two wonderful granddaughters. Family is my main source of inspiration, and I always strive to spend quality time with them. I am patient and know how to create a warm and friendly atmosphere for children, ensuring they feel cared for and secure. I believe it is important to give attention not only to children but also to elderly people who require care. I have over 10 years of experience as a caregiver, providing assistance to individuals with limited mobility and elderly clients. I have cared for a client who was wheelchair-bound and needed help with daily activities such as transferring from bed, dressing, meal preparation, administering medication, bathing, and ensuring her hygiene and comfort. I also accompanied her on walks, shopping trips, and medical appointments to keep her active and engaged in daily life. Additionally, I provided care for a 90-year-old man with mobility challenges. While he could walk independently, albeit slowly, he required help with tasks like dressing, meal preparation, and maintaining hygiene. I assisted him with getting in and out of bed and accompanied him on gentle outdoor walks to support his physical activity. My goal is to create a calm and secure environment for my clients. I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. I am confident that my experience, patience, and attention to detail will help you feel assured that your loved one is in safe and caring hands. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, self-improvement, reading, and creative hobbies. One of my passions is creating paintings and handmade items from epoxy resin. For me, this is not only a form of creative expression but also a way to relax, restore balance, and relieve stress from daily routines. I am a responsible and attentive person with strong organizational and time-management skills, especially when it comes to caring for elderly clients. My primary goal is to ensure that your loved ones feel safe, comfortable, and confident in the care they receive. I have over 10 years of experience as a caregiver, providing compassionate and attentive care to individuals with limited mobility and elderly clients. For many years, I worked with a client who was wheelchair-bound and required full assistance with daily activities. My responsibilities included lifting and transferring her from bed to wheelchair, dressing her, preparing meals, administering medications, assisting with bathing, and ensuring her hygiene and comfort. I also accompanied her on walks, shopping trips, and medical appointments, ensuring she remained engaged and active in her daily life. Additionally, I cared for a 90-year-old man with mobility challenges. While he could walk independently at a slow pace, he required assistance with daily tasks such as dressing, meal preparation, and maintaining his hygiene. I also supported him in getting in and out of bed and accompanied him on gentle outdoor walks to keep him active. I am a patient, responsible, and attentive caregiver who always prioritizes the well-being, safety, and dignity of my clients. My goal is to create a comfortable and supportive environment where they feel cared for and respected.

I have over eleven years of experience as a print journalist on Saipan, and when I moved to the U.S., I transitioned into healthcare with a focus on elderly care. What started out as a coincidence turned into a fulfilling new path, where I quickly realized that many of the skills I developed as a journalist, like communication and empathy, translated well into caregiving. I’m passionate about classical music, film noir, and classic movies, which helps me connect with clients and build strong, meaningful relationships. Although I’m tall, I’ve found that my height is actually an advantage when assisting elderly clients with mobility or daily activities. With my upbeat attitude and ability to connect with people, I’ve always had positive feedback from clients, who enjoy having me around. I genuinely love helping others and believe this is the right career for me.
