About Andrea

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a 45-year-old woman that has been afforded the opportunity to care for the elderly since I was 15 years old. I cared for my great grandmother after school for over three years. I did her laundry, shopping and prepared her meals daily and was able to stay overnight on the weekends. In my early 30's I cared for a woman who was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Although she wasn't a senior she was bed ridden and required extensive care. I bathed, fed, cooked and cared for her home which included providing care for her school aged children as well. For the past five years I have cared for an elderly woman as a live in/out provider. She has dementia and requires meal preparation, food shopping, errands ran and maintaining her household as well. I welcome the opportunity to bring my heart into another household and care for those that need it.

Andrea is a kind and patient caregiver who has worked with my family for over five years caring for my grandmother. My grandmother has dementia and requires basic care such as the preparation of meals and assistance with dressing and bathing. Andrea shows concern, love, and dedication to my grandmother and her specific needs and is a true advocate for my grandmother. Andrea is a tremendous help to my family in caring for my grandmother by helping to provide a safe and nurturing environment that allows us to keep my grandmother home for as long as possible.
