I love children and possess my Child & Youth Worker diploma. I currently work with the elderly handicapped. I enjoy being in the kitchen, as well as exploring outdoors. I take pride in assembling things and worked in an automotive plant, assembling vehicles. I love the outdoors; gardening, hiking and discovering new hidden gems. I am quite handy around the house...painting, minor repairs like replacing a faucet.

What else ...
I'm very easy going and enjoy learning on various areas.
I have worked with children as well as elderly and handicapped persons. Children are fun and high energy, like me, and so if you have children, I have no doubt that I would be an asset in your home.
I love to cook and bake and when working with children, I always include them in the preparations as they too find it rewarding to help and be included.
I enjoy gardening and find it to be very satisfying. It's my Zen being in the garden talking to the plants. I have been learning about preserving and find great satisfaction in opening a jar of pickled zucchini or salsa, in the winter.
I like to spend my days off work in the kitchen, cooking up a delicious meal, food prepping for my work week or baking. I prefer the summer heat, and enjoy being by the water, hiking and venturing to discover new paths or creating my own, while often stopping to listen to the birds, monkeys, frogs, wildlife in general. I visited Ecuador 2 years ago and there's no words to describe the hike and scenery from Cotopaxi volcano.
I can play board or card games and I'd say cribbage would be my favourite card game.
My favourite house pet would be cats. At one point I had 3 cats, a snake and a ferret, as well as a salt water tank. The sound of a cats purr I find to be very therapeutic, so if you have animals, I would love them up.Some more information
