About Sarah

Experience: 9 yrs

I am an empathetic and attentive care giver, and I passionately believe that everyone deserves dignified care at all stages of life. I am adept and comfortable with covering the basics of care - bathing, medication management, housekeeping/laundry, and transfer assistance. My culinary background adds to my repertoire of affordable and nutritious meals, from simple fare to healthy comfort food. I am happy to assist with errands and grocery outside the home on a pre-agreed basis, as well as general household management like sorting mail, paying bills, and managing calendars. I bring an easy going attitude combined with a strong attention detail. I am well attuned to the needs of others, and always open to feedback. Whether holding space for a quiet moment of grief or carrying on an light hearted conversation while completing my tasks, I enjoy finding a balance of meeting an individual's needs while providing personalable companionship.

I have never encountered a more skilled and compassionate person. I have a lot of physical disabilities and long Covid symptoms, and that requires someone to have a high degree of attunement to my emotional needs, physical limitations, and then practical what-needs-to-get-done. Sarah hits it out of the ballpark every time. I can't recommend her more. Her wheelchair experience surpasses every other caregiver I have had – and trust me, my sidewalks are bumpy and broken. She takes difficulties with the lightheartedness that reduce stress where other caregivers had actually increased my stress. She is calming, soothing – even in the midst of a lot of physical pain. Anyone who has the great fortune of connecting with Sarah will recognize the extraordinary gift that has just walked through their door.
