Kathleen’s Bio
I have a great deal of experience caring for animals as well as the elderly. My grandmother is in her late 90s and I often help her with prescriptions and grocery shopping and laundry and any additional help that she needs. I also have a history of babysitting in high school for several years, and I am still in touch with some of the families, I would be happy to provide references, and I am also volunteering at Journeys in Palatine, where they help not only families who need clothes, food, and interview clothing, but with people who need a place to stay for the night or need help finding job interviews or just help getting back on their feet. I will not smoke during work hours if it is an issue whatsoever.
