Experience: 10 yrs
For over 10 years, I have provided reliable and compassionate companionship and personal support to individuals and families with different needs, from seniors to younger adults recovering from surgery or needing daily guidance and reminders. My role often goes beyond basic care. Sometimes it's simply about being present--sharing meals, enjoying conversation, taking walks, or offering calm company. I also assist with light household tasks, post-surgery recovery support, gentle exercises, medication reminders, transportation, errands, and doctor appointments. I support individuals who are mostly independent but benefit from routine guidance, memory reminders, and help with driving or daily organization. I have excellent references and certifications, and my goal is to help each person feel safe, comfortable, and valued--just like family.
I’ve hired several care workers over the past decade, to help with taking care of my father, and then mother, while they were in hospice. Many I found lacked the most important skill, common sense. Manuela on the other hand is a gem, I was so lucky she was available to assist me with packing up my things for a move. Not only is she outgoing, friendly, and a delight to be around, but she is also hard working and intelligent, she came up with great ideas to solve problems, and make things run smoothly. I would hire her again in a heartbeat ❤️. But Manuela is not just a great care taker, she’s simply a great person, and we appreciated her very much😊
