About Lela

Experience: 18 yrs

For nearly two decades, I've dedicated my career to enriching the lives of adults and seniors. My background includes a college degree and extensive experience in home health. I find immense satisfaction in providing reliable care and support to families. As a caregiver, I offer live-in care, transportation, help with errands, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and medical management. I am also adept at assisting with physical activity. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am skilled at adapting to changing routines, de-escalating stressful situations, and handling confusion with patience and understanding. I prioritize understanding your loved one's preferences and history. I provide regular updates using your preferred method. My goal is to make a positive impact on your loved one's life, and I look forward to bringing my experience and calm demeanor to your family.

Lela worked with my family for an extended period, where we had the pleasure to get to know her as a professional and person. She was the primary caregiver for my mother for several years, supporting her as an independent senior through end of life, also managing the challenges of Covid restrictions. She was empathetic, adaptable, reliable and professional throughout. We were very fortunate to have the benefit of her kindness and expertise! I recommend her without reservation.
