Elder Care in Toronto, Ontario

I'm an
Individual
Dear Host family. I am Durga Rai from Triyuga, Nepal. I am enthusiastic, disciplined, compassionate and kind, 42 years old woman with a pleasant and good personality. Though petite, I consider myself quite strong, physically and emotionally. I have experience as a teacher, working with kids and a caregiver. The essence of my personality being compassion and wanting to maintain an energetic attitude, it made me opt for a teaching career working with young kids. I've been working as the in-charge of kindergarten sector in a reputed school in Kathmandu, Nepal for the past 6 years. I can perform in any pressurized working condition at any time (Day or Night) to complete my duties and responsibilities. I have the ability to handle people at their worst with patience and provide care with compassion. I believe in treating and caring everyone with dignity. The most unique quality that I possess is my nature to adapt easily whether it is the surroundings or the people in it. Even though I never had job as a caregiver in any previous working experience, my job entails me to look after very young kids, some as young as 2 years old. I feed them, take care of their soiled pants and care for them. We are a family of four, which includes my husband, my 10 year old son and frail 75 years old mother-in-law. I am the sole bread winner for my family which is getting more difficult due to the inflation rates. My husband is partially blind and losing more vision with every passing day. Owing to his disability he cannot hold any job in any organization. My mother-in-law is a senior citizen who's weak and unable to look after herself. She is patient of Diabetes. I take care of her diet, including any dietary restrictions, her medicine schedule and doctors' appointments. Due to her dietary restrictions i cook food with less oil, spices, sugar, salt and cook foods which suit her and are easy to digest and are healthy. I take her for walks, to her doctors' appointments; we go out sometimes and take care of her daily basic hygiene like bathing, toilets and grooming. Apart from taking care of her I have a very close bond with my mother-in-law. I take care of almost everything in my house. I cook, clean, do the dishes, do the laundry and provide financially as well. My son is currently studying in 5 classes. With my husband being partially blind I raised him myself. Throughout everything I have my family's support. I am very happy in taking care of them. It is difficult at times but it gives me great pleasure to make such a huge difference in their lives. I am enthusiastic about the Live-In Caregiver position and to work with your family and look forward to meeting with you. I have had a very hand on experience working with elder family members in my personal life, and with kids in both my personal and professional lives. I would like to let you know that if I got selected I will give my 100% to perform my job and I will be very conscious and sincere with my jobs and responsibilities wholeheartedly. I like helping people, I am very compassionate and enjoy taking care of elder family members and children and would like to help others in this way which has potential to make a difference in their lives. I hope my personal experience as a caregiver, a mother, and a wife will help to reach your expectations as satisfactory.
