As a Caregiver for the last eight plus years, I worked closely with a married couple in their home for four years. After they passed, I worked with those with challenges, all different ages. Beginning to work with babies and teenagers and their families. My services include: cooking meals; grocery shopping; keeping company/ conversation; light cleaning, especially kitchen; medication reminders; chauffeuring to appointments; bathing; laundry; accompanying on walks; various outings (church, pedicures, dinner, concerts, lunches, doctors, etc); picnics in backyard; garden planting/watering, dog walking. I easily relate to others with openness and heartfelt interest; help in organizing homes/offices; I love teaching exercise/movement therapy/music-dancing; anything creative/artistic; enjoy cooking; helping others to achieve the next level of health/fitness; teaching healthy eating/preparing/cooking; networking in connecting people; and practicing unabashed love toward humans and animals.

    Ruth has been incredibly helpful to me in my current situation. After an ER episode and then a week at an in-patient rehab facility, I am now receiving regular out-patient therapy at the same place. The distance is significant and I cannot drive it myself. Ruth has been driving me to and from my appointments, and waiting throughout my therapy session in case something arises and I need immediate assistance. She does much more than drive me. She studied up on my condition initially to make sure she understood my needs. She takes care of me during ambulation, helps me keep track of my appointments - times can change - and provides a very supportive and friendly environment. This also helps me to maintain enthusiasm for the rehab itself. I'm lucky to have found Ruth.
