BaebiParticipantHello, my name is Birgit. Have you found someone yet to help your father?
I am female, 57 yeqrs old, live on Morgan Junction. I was born and raised in Germany and came to the Seattle in 1994. My background is in Personal Service, i.e. I have worked for/with several individuals who had various degrees of requirements, needs, expectations and wishes. This is a very personal and adaptable area to work in.Is your father still driving himself?
I currently volunteer at the West Seattle Senior Center which I hope your father might be visiting. They are providing wonderful services.
I used to live on the island of Martha’s Vineyard where I cooked meals for the elderly.
I can provide several references here from Seattle and various ones from Martha’s Vineyard.
I want to make it clear that I am not a medical caregiver, nurse or similar. Companion, Household Help, “Girl Friday”, Personal Chef is probably the closest job description. I am about to set up my business again, so currently I would be able to cover these shifts you mentioned.I am vaccinated with two Pfizer shots, I do not smoke or drink, I possess a valid driver license but currently have sold my car and plan to be earth sensitive and get around by bike and bus.
It would be lovely to talk to you even if you already found someone. I be happy to share my knowledge and maybe can offer some avdise re the senior services offered by the City of Seattle.
They are marvelous.You can reach me anytime at 206-557-9681, pls leave reference WEST SEATTLE BLOG on my voice mail in case I am not available. Feel free to call between 8am – 9pm any day.
Look forward talking to you.
Stay cool in this Sweltering heat, I hope your dad has A/C or a cool basement. :-)
Birgit
