About Alana

Experience: 10 yrs

Bringing comfort and support to others is my passion. I spent 2-3 years caring for elder care and 20+ years working with special needs children and young adults. I've been a live in Nanny for 3+ years . I've provided respite and live-in care, along with assistance for errands, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I also offer transportation, medical management, and mobility assistance. My background includes some college education, and I hold current certifications in CPR and First Aid. I understand the importance of adapting to changing routines, de-escalating stressful situations, and handling confusion with patience. Compassion and empathy guide my approach, and I prioritize understanding each individual's preferences and history. I communicate with families through daily reports, text, or phone calls, always respecting their preferred method. Ultimately, I want to provide your family with peace of mind, knowing your loved one is in caring hands.

Alana took care of my mother years ago.. she was able to make my mother comfortable. She is a great conversationalist, she cooked for my mom. She sat and watched TV with her when my mom was very very anxious and wanted to leave the house. ALANA put her in her car and put the seatbelt on her and took her for a ride around the block a few times and back home and that was just enough to help my mom with her anxiety.… I thought that was very smart of her to take my mom out for that ride around the block a few times it made a big difference plus she cooked her hot meals and talked and was a great friend and comfort and company for my mom
