I was a hospice volunteer for 5 years while I was in college after my mother died in hospice at St. Mary's. I earned a Master's in Therapeutic Recreation and was hired as the Recreation Director for the Senior Center of Richmond. I'd describe my personality as fun, happy and dedicated. I like caring for seniors because I learn so much from hearing their stories, and I want to honor them by caring with dignity. I'm looking for a job that is the right fit for both of us. I started caring for seniors when I was 21 as a hospice volunteer. In my spare time, I like to garden, walk in the neighborhood, visit with friends and go camping. One thing you should know about me is I am an empath and I understand how difficult it can be to grow old and need support. My top three skills are cooking/nutrition, organization and problem solving.

Elizabeth cared for my son with special needs for several years until we moved out of the area. She treated him as her own son and went way beyond basic care expectations by coming up with creative and meaningful enrichment activities for him. Her experience in homeschooling her own children gave her a wide array of educational activities to tap into with my son. He still talks about the experiences he had with her. I highly recommend her.
