After teaching journalism for 20 years at a Big Ten school, I retired to North Carolina to be closer to my family. However, I find myself missing the interaction with young people and the chance at 'teach moments' whenever those opportunities arise. I am older than some of your care givers but with that comes a varied background, I have worked in radio & TV, choreographed high school musicals, and dance competitions. As for academics, I went all the way up to but did not complete my PhD (babies came along ;). So I have written, and graded academic papers at every level from the high school level through college. In addition, I am currently helping to care for my 89 year old mother, cook part-time at a senior living retirement home and give respite care fo my 21 year old nephew who has a seizure disorder . So I feel I am well qualified to take care of your loved one, no matter their age, while also engaging them in learning activities or their favorite hobbies. Also, I grew up on a small farm so no pet, is too large, small, or exotic for me to give it some TLC while you can't be there. I am happy to do errands, light housekeeping, and homework along with the regular caregiving duties. I am hoping to find something on a regular basis but am wiling to take a job until we make sure we are the right fit for everyone involved
