I have been working with people with disabilities for 15 years and I love it. I have experience as live-in caregiver. I worked for several agencies, as well private.

For the past three and a half years, Alicia provided exceptional care for our parents  who were both in their nineties, until their recent passing in January and June of this year. Her care-giving efforts were initially focused on our mother who suffered from Parkinson Disease and Dementia. She also provided valued support and help to our father as his body and mind deteriorated due to old age. Alicia is an excellent cook and prepared nourishing meals they enjoyed. She is compassionate, caring, kind, thoughtful, dependable, capable, loyal, trustworthy, hardworking, and pro-active in her duties. She demonstrated great love and respect for them. She provided companionship, helped them with personal care including bathing, administered medication, transitioning from bed to commode and wheelchair, did laundry, and assisted with doctor's appointments when needed. Thanks to Alicia, our parents were able to remain in their own home for the last years of their lives.

Alicia has been an excellent caregiver for my father over the past year.  She is completely reliable and professional and is competent in transferring in and out of bed and a shower chair with a Hoyer lift. Most importantly, she is kind and gentle and is a beautiful person inside and out. Our family feels extremely blessed to have found Alicia to provide loving care for our dear father. I recommend her without reservation.

Alicia is amazing! She is a great cook and brings my mom dinner once a week for one of her shifts. She works hard and is very knowledgeable about how to care for my mom during her back/gall surgery recovery. We are so grateful to have met Alicia through Care.com. She is patient, sweet, and punctual. We are happy to add her to our family!

Alicia is very caring and she is a hard worker and a wonderful cook! We really appreciate her!!!

Alicia has been very helpful in relieving a lot of the stress involved in caring for my aging parents. She was able to declutter and organize storage spaces as well as keep the house clean. She is an awesome cook! She also drove my parents around for shopping, errands, and doctor appointments.

Alicia is incredible, kind, talented, organized and a very hard worker!

Alicia, cared for my father and mother. On top of meeting the needs had, health care, and around the house. She really cared for them, made a huge difference to the last years of their life. 

Alicia often went above and beyond in the care of my Father. Being out of state, I was worried, but Dad always appreciated and enjoyed her help. During Dads last few weeks it was clear that the hospice nurse also had a great respect for the knowledge and care that Alicia was providing.



We loved Alicia. She went above and beyond what we needed. My mother Was completely bed bound and Alicia was incredible at taking care of her. We would highly recommend her. Very trustworthy, dependable, knowledgeable and caring. The only other person we know that we gave a key to our house.

My husband had a stroke and had to have someone with him night and day as he was paralyzed on the left side. I could handle his care in the daytime, along with help from our family but couldn't do it 24/7 so we hired Alicia to stay with him 4 nights a week and help rotate him, move his arm or leg, give him a drink of water or give him more pain meds,  help him with the urinal or in general meet his needs.  She slept in a twin bed in his room and when I went to bed in another room I had complete confidence that my husband would be taken care of completely as all he had to do was call her name and she was right there to help.  She also showered him 2 mornings a week and one evening a week after Carl was settled down she would vacuum or do light housekeeping for me for about an hour. She worked for us for about 2 1/2 years until his passing May 13, 2017.  She is dearly loved by all of us and really seems like part of our family now.  She is ALWAYS Cheerful and happy!

   

Alicia is amazing. She really helped me a lot. My father was very needy and had a lot of energy. She took him to the gym, fed him, and talked with him for four hours a day. She also took him on field trips regularly. It was great! I highly recommend her.

She was an outstanding caregiver for both my mother and my father. She is a problem solver and would take initiative in trying to understand my parent's ongoing health challenges and take steps that would be best to help them. She is very knowledgeable with so much experience. My parents loved her and we loved her, she works well with people. She cared for my parents with dementia, back and joint pain, pain management, sundowners, neuropathy, and mini-strokes. She would anticipate their needs and very perceptive to any physical or emotional changes in them. I highly highly recommend her.

She was dependable, had very good suggestions, polite, smart, and compassionate. We appreciated her so much. She worked for us for 3.5 years, lovingly taking care of our mother that had severe arthritis,  then strokes, then level 4 bed sore. She passed away June 2014, and our father had vascular dementia for 5 years, he passed away December 2014.
