Making a difference in people's lives is what drives me. With many years of experience providing care, I'm passionate about supporting the well-being and independence of adults and seniors. I strive to be patient, calm, compassionate, and friendly. I adapt to changing routines, de-escalate stressful situations, and handle confusion with care. I provide respite care, transportation, and help with errands, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I communicate with families through verbal updates and regular texts, always following their preferred method. Creating a comfortable environment is important to me when connecting with your loved ones. I have some college experience and hold current CPR and First Aid certifications. I'm eager to bring my skills and caring heart to your family. I have helped care for many family and friends in the surrounding Oak Park area that have struggled with depression, dementia and just needing a companion.
I cannot recommend Peggy highly enough! After a serious fall and hip surgery, my recovery was incredibly difficult and required around-the-clock care. Peggy was a constant source of kindness, support, and joy throughout this time. She is an excellent caregiver—always attentive, caring, and compassionate. She cooked delicious meals, helped with shopping and cleaning, and made sure my days were comfortable and bright. Beyond her practical help, Peggy is an amazing companion. She introduced me to new interests I never knew I had, and I could talk to her about anything. Hearing stories about her large, loving family—her four children and fourteen grandchildren—always warmed my heart and brought so much happiness to my days. Peggy’s dedication, positivity, and genuine care made a difficult time so much more manageable. Anyone would be lucky to have her by their side.
