Elder Care in Toronto, Ontario

I am polite, caring, and quick to learn. I can provide meals for older loved ones who do not quite need a full-time care giver but may need some assistance. I can also help to show them how to prepare healthy, wholesome foods. I am diabetic and familiar with adjusting recipes to suit a diabetic\'s diet, as well as counting carbs, and insulin injections. I am young and energetic, and passionate about helping other diabetics lead a healthy lifestyle and avoid the life-threatening, oft familiar risks of \'lows\' and \'highs\' I cared for and cooked for my grandma after heart surgery, including preparing healthy meals to a specific diet. I have had extensive experience planning meals for several diets including veterinarian, low glycemic, and can prepare meals which can than be frozen and served on other days. I have volunteered at the Old Age home in Antigua preparing meals for holidays, as well as spending time with the residents. I have also volunteered at the home for the mentally challenged, where my duties included preparing light meals and interacting with residents with various disabilities. I supervised groups of younger children in my visiting the institution to ensure everyone interacted safely, an experience equally valuable for the children and the residents. I helped to organize fundraisers to buy basic care items such as toiletries and food for those we visited.
