Kandis G. Care Companion in Saint Louis, MO 63128

I love working with People, although most of my life has been caring for children. I have been a stay at home mom raising our two children. Then when they entered school, I worked with Special School District (SSD) for 12 years.
I am familiar with parents needing interaction. Both my father-in-Law and then my Mother-in-Law were placed in nursing homes. Often I would come visit my father-in-law bringing our pet dog to visit, or bring the newspaper and special takeout meals. when I visited my Mother-in-Law, I would take her to activities or just sit and reminisce over pictures.
My father also had dementia but, he lived over 600 miles away making it difficult to travel an a regular basis.
My mother live 2 hours away and is in decline but still able to be independent. When I visit, we bake, play cards, or I will do laundry, change her bedding. Sometimes we go out shopping or visit other friends.
