About Leslie

Experience: 3 yrs

Hello! After caring for my parents full-time for two years, I have happily entered into a career in caregiving. My experience, approximately 3 years, includes caring for someone with esophageal cancer (Dad), which involved specialized cooking and feeding tube maintenance, as well as being a companion for someone with dementia (Mom). I've also worked with several families in the Champaign Urbana community. I also have experience with transfers, bathroom assistance, bathing, feeding, and dressing. I can help you with light housekeeping, cooking, companionship, walking, reading, and keeping physically active. I'm a volunteer for Carle Hospice, so I have recently completed a background check and Alzheimer's training. I'm also certified through the American Caregivers Association. I look forward to talking with you if you feel that I match what you're looking for. Thanks for reading!

Leslie was a true dream come true. She came into our parents home and immediately became family. She is a loving, kind, thoughtful caregiver who is also eager and responsible. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We highly recommend Leslie! Thank you so much for helping us keep our 90 plus aged parents in their home!
