Experience: 10 yrs
I am dedicated to providing compassionate, reliable, and personalized support to individuals with limited mobility, cognitive decline, and chronic health conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. My approach is rooted in dignity, respect, and empathy - focusing on enhancing independence while fostering safe, supportive, and trusting relationships. Throughout my career, I have coordinated complex care needs, maintained open communication with families and healthcare professionals, and built meaningful connections with those I serve. My commitment goes beyond daily assistance; it's about improving quality of life, promoting comfort, and creating a sense of companionship and trust that endures.
Tessa cared for my mother from 2017 until her passing in 2022. She was professional, dependable, and always went above and beyond. As my mother’s needs increased, Tessa naturally took on more responsibility. She kept her active and social, supported her medical care, and even checked in on her during off hours. She often recognized areas where more support was needed and addressed multiple safety concerns before they became an issue. Tessa is also a wonderful cook and always made sure my mother ate healthy. She prepared all of my mom’s meals and ensured she had ready to eat meals during her off hours. Our family is deeply grateful for her care, compassion, and kindness and highly recommend her to anyone needing care for themself or their aging parents. -Claudia R.
