    Shimika was a huge asset to our family, providing care to a family member with Lewy Body Dementia until he passed. She was positive and compassionate and had a natural ability to "read the room" knowing the best time to assist and the best time to stand by. She was both dependable and flexible, accommodating schedule changes with grace. She is a skilled caregiver and an excellent communicator and a welcome addition to our home.
