Every client is different but it is a joy to able to bring joy and comfort to someone who is nor able to do for themselves. I always ask them what is their favorite book or movie and I will get that book and read it to them. I care for my clients the way I want my mother to be cared for. I have 10+ years experience as a care giver, I prepare meals, bath /shower, dressing, light house keeping, bed making and linen change, laundry, feed client, take client on walks when possible either with a walker or wheelchair. Basically provide great companionship and laughter. I am also trained in caring for clients with Alzheimers and dementia.

Jenny jumped right in when we needed someone ASAP for our elderly aunt and uncle. She provides companionship for our aunt with dementia, showers her and gets their food ready for the day. Jenny is reliable and always willing to do whatever is needed.

I hired Jenny to assist with my 83 year old mother for 1-2 months. It's been 2 full weeks thus far and she's doing an awesome job. She has shown  every day, on time and helps mom with her PT and OT as well as any bathroom needs, makes her breakfast, lunch, etc. I come home to a clean house - the laundry is done and the dishes are done. I wasn't expecting that, but she's great. She even gets a long with our 2 small pups...which is a huge bonus!!! Her personality and sense of humor shows all day long while she gets the job done, with a smile!  Would absolutely rehire her again. Thanks Jenny!!!

My family hired Jenny to be a companion for my father in law, who is at an Assisted Living in Memory Care.  We wanted someone to engage him, giving him mental stimulation, focused attention, compassion and friendship.  Jenny has been a true blessing for him!!  He has dementia, and she uses her sense of humor, compassion and extensive knowledge to bring out the best in him!  He loves her, and so does our family. She also calls me with updates, which I so appreciate!  She has recently encouraged his sense of independence, which has been a wonderful change in him!  We are delighted with Jenny!!

Jenny has been an integral part of my mother's caregiver team. She joined us as a long-term fill-in and has now become a permanent member of the team. Jenny is reliable, punctual, and flexible. I've been fortunate to be able to rely upon her to fill in for extra hours and other shifts, even without much advance notice. Jenny quickly meshed with the routines at the house and is a good personality match for my mother. She is pleasant, kind and gentle. I would be happy to recommend Jenny. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you.

Jenny provided the absolute best care we could have asked for for my grandmother.  She took care of her with such diligence and love.  Jenny became an important part of our family and was open to grandchildren and other family members coming and going from the house daily.
Jenny told endless stories and made my grandma laugh every day.  She cooked absolutely delicious meals and made sure my grandma ate heartily.  She had no problem with bathing, transferring, wheeling my grandma around, and assisting physical therapists.  My grandma was a very faithful Catholic, and Jenny said her prayers with her every night even though she herself did not share the same religion.  She kept the house super clean and was fearless when it came to changing sheets, pampers, blankets, and towels.  She really knows what she is doing in regards to senior care.  My grandma had Alzheimer 's disease and Jenny was so good working with her and tending to her needs.  She was always singing and getting my grandma to smile.  At the beginning, Jenny worked with my grandma to exercise her legs and body, until walking was no longer an option.  After that Jenny took my grandma on daily walks around the neighborhood, pushing the wheelchair.  She had no problem with numerous family members joining in on the walks, for breakfast or dinner, or just hanging out.  
During hurricane Sandy, Jenny sat right with my grandma for many days with the power out.  She kept the house warm and my grandma comfortable.  When my grandma was hospitalized with low sodium and my grandma 's needs became more complex, Jenny was up for the challenge without question.  
I cannot say enough about how genuinely kind, dedicated, and gifted Jenny is.  She has a heart of gold and really cares about the patient she is working for us.  For us, she really assimilated to our family with ease and made a really hard time a lot easier and enjoyable.  Any family who is lucky enough to have Jenny as a caretaker will be truly blessed.  You can 't ask for a better person both as a caregiver and as a friend.

I do not hesitate for one moment to highly recommend Jenny N.  Jenny lived with and cared for my mom who was suffering from late stage Alzheimer's disease.  Previously, my mom had been living with me and it was difficult for us to realize and admit that caring for her was now moving beyond our abilities and we needed professional help.  From the first day we interviewed Jenny and she met my mom, I knew we were doing the right thing.  Jenny is friendly, conversational, and respectful.  She treated my mom with dignity at all times. Our family thinks of Jenny as an angel that God sent to us to help my mom.  Jenny made what ended up being the last months of my mom's life, the most pleasant possible days.  We told Jenny how my mom has always been a religious person, and was a daily communicant for over 60 years.  Jenny heard this, and made sure that each night she said prayers with my mom.  Jenny is a fantastic cook and showed great creativity in the kitchen when it was needed to get my mom to eat.   We have a large family and Jenny was completely friendly and open to the constant flow of visitors; even enticing the teenaged grandchildren to come by more frequently at breakfast or dinner time with the promise of some of her delicious food!

Jenny had only been with us for a few weeks when my mom had to be hospitalized.  When my mom came out of the hospital, her needs had dramatically increased.  She could no longer hold a spoon and feed herself, walk, or keep herself up in a seated position, etc.  Jenny did not miss a beat.   Jenny maintained a positive attitude, worked side by side with the physical therapist, and managed to nurture my mom from a totally liquid diet back to solid foods.  Jenny was truly a family member in the care of my mom and offered us priceless pieces of advice and guidance such as what products to use on her dry skin and suggesting the purchase of a three position chair. 

I could go on and on and tell you many anecdotes and reasons why I would recommend Jenny but I think since my mom was the primary recipient of her care, it would be best to use her words.  Each week, my mom used her voice and words less and less; until she was only averaging about 15 to 18 words a week.  In one week, I heard her say two sentences; both to Jenny.  One was, "Thank you. You take such good care of me." and the other was, "I love you."

Please reach out for me if you need to discuss anything further.

Sincerely,
Catherine O.
