I bring my best listening, attention, curiosity, and love of life stories to you or your loved ones. I originally trained as a CNA in 2003 to care for my Grandmother at the end of her life. I did in-home care through several agencies through 2012, and then cared for my sweet Mom as she navigated dementia eventually providing 24/7 care for her from 2020 to 2023. In 2024 I began doing Live-in care directly for families. I have had the tremendous privilege of accompanying elders on their sacred ground journeys; some through hospice, others through the crisis of illness, others still active and participating in life with changed abilities. Caregiving is a special relationship. Trust, respect, exquisite attention, deep listening, the ability to adapt to changes are necessary skills I bring. I also bring a sense of humor which is very valuable!
Navigating our new normal with our loved one (age 90), who needed 24/7 home care, became feasible because of Kara. Kara’s expertise as a care provider has been invaluable. Kara has been patient and kind, providing our elderly family member with an improved quality of life while keeping her safe. Kara is truly a “dementia friend,” and is very respectful, responsible and resourceful. We have had peace of mind knowing that Kara cares about our family member’s needs/wants, regularly communicating with us and offering suggestions.
