About Katherine

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been caring for seniors for more than 25 years, and I genuinely enjoy helping people remain as independent as possible while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and respected. I have experience helping with mobility, medications, daily activities, and dementia care. I understand that dementia can bring changes in mood or behavior, and I'm comfortable staying calm and helping someone through difficult moments. To me, good caregiving is about more than completing tasks. It's about getting to know the person, respecting their choices, and helping them continue doing what they can for themselves. I also believe in keeping families informed and am happy to communicate by phone, text, or in person. I am CPR and First Aid certified. Most of all, I hope to become someone both you and your loved one can know, trust, and feel comfortable having around.
