Hello, my name is Dawn Gordon, and I have lived here on Thetis for 21 years now. I have done many jobs over the years here. I have been the "troll" at the toll booth, I have been the Post Office Person, I have done massage and taught yoga. I have studied natural ways of healing with plants and movement, essential oils and food.

And now, as I have spent this last year healing from major back surgery, I am ready to return to the world of the working. Soon to be a newly minted senior, my goal is to help more elderly seniors, or people who have injuries, who are recovering from surgery or whatever has limited their capability of caring for themselves or their home and pets.

I am offering the following services in 5-6 timeframes of 2.5 hours each. (mornings 9-1:30 or 9:30-12:00) and afternoons (2:00-4:30).

* Meal preparation (this can include planning meals, shopping and creating healthy home-made meals)

* Light housekeeping (bathrooms, light vacuuming/dusting, laundry, making beds, etc.)

* Errands, driving to appointments (this takes a little more time and possible re-arrangement of schedules)

* Gentle outside work

* Feeding, walking and caring for pets while you heal.

* Grocery shopping and putting things away.

This can be an on-going service, or just for a few weeks/months while you heal. I am a gentle, quiet soul and I will support you or your senior person hoping to stay in their own home for as long as they can comfortably.

To contact me you can phone 250-210-0826 and leave a message or text me or email dawn_gordon@telus.net

Warmly,

Dawn
