Hello, My name is Marie. I am a resident of Quebec, but currently residing in Victoria due to my partner's work. I'm actively seeking a temporary employment opportunity, until the month of May, when I return to Quebec. In this context, it seemed only fitting for me to explore job opportunities as a companion for seniors. I find this particular role appealing not only because of my relevant experience and qualifications but also due to my genuine interest for working with the elderly.
