Description

I am a curious soul who loves people and making connections. I also love learning and experiencing new things and ways of life. People say that I am easy to get along with, responsible and take my work seriously while also having a good time. What brings me joy is helping out others in any way I can.

I enjoy cooking and eating, helping out around the house, gardening, music, reading and spending time outdoors. I am interested in crystals, meditation, health, chakras, healing touch and energy work, astrology and more!

I am a former elementary teacher now on a spiritual path. I am excited about this new phase of my life and ready for new experiences and opportunities to help me grow and be in service. I look forward to meeting you!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I am a former elementary teacher in the United States. Prior to this I worked as a medical assistant working directly with patient care as well as working in the front office (scheduling/insurance, etc). My husband was paralyzed so I was his caregiver. I raised boy/girl twins who are now adults and am a proud Nana of one granddaughter. I have been a pet owner of cats and fish. I have dabbled in gardening and landscape work around my home. I can be crafty if need be and have done a little sewing, crafts, jewelry making, etc. I enjoy cooking. I can get things done around the house such as painting, fixing things and most recently installing a new keyless entry door handle. ;)

Brenda very quickly became a part of our family and seemed to have no trouble slotting into our daily routine. She is wonderfully easy-going but at the same time, is thoughtful, helpful and takes the initiative really well. Benji adored her, as we all did and her presence in our home was such a blessing. She brought a peaceful and joyful energy to … read more

Brenda was in my house for 14 days. she is such a lovely person
She helped me varnish the windows. I was very happy with that. I myself postponed that task. And now I'm so glad this is done.
She also helped in the garden to build a wall of branches. It looks beautiful now.
But she also helped with weeding, the laundry, cooking. Brenda is a really … read more
