About Cheryl
Experience: 10 yrs
Supporting the well-being and independence of seniors has been my lifelong passion for the past 25 years. My approach is rooted in patience, empathy, and a friendly demeanor, ensuring your loved one feels both respected and heard. As a dedicated caregiver, I assist with personal care, mobility, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I am also experienced in dementia care, including redirecting attention and managing behavioral changes with a calm, steady hand. I prioritize your family's preferred communication style to provide regular updates on your loved one's daily progress. Whether I am assisting with medical management or adapting to new routines, I always center my care around preserving your loved one's dignity. It would be an honor to bring my experience and heart into your home to support your family.
Most recent review
Cheryl has been an indispensable part of my family's life for the past nearly twenty years. She started with me to help with cleaning and organizing the house. She continues in that capacity to this day and- I hope - forever! She took care of my elderly mother and father as they aged and through their deaths through a variety of needs and conditions for the past eight years. She was a nanny for two of my grandsons until my daughter became a full time mother. There is nothing Cheryl cannot and will not do. She is more than trustworthy, compassionate, competent, and thorough. I rely on her as a personal assistant and cherished friend. I would recommend her unhesitatingly in a wide range of competencies. Anyone who is able to work with Cheryl or to be cared for by Cheryl should consider herself fortunate.
