About Amy

I am very forth right, I take pride in giving hope and making tomorrow a brighter day for my clients. No job is to big or overwhelming for me to tackle. I am very protective and very loving. I am fast and efficient in emergency situations, I do not freeze or panic in my clients time of needs. I enjoy taking my clients out for activities and trips( no one can excel staying in a chair all day) Dr appointments, grocery shopping, puzzles, crafts and activities keep the mind sharp and on point. That's what I strive for[?] Whatever is important to my client becomes important to me and I will remember all of those dates and address them accordingly.. No house work is too much for me.. if they have a project they would like to do we will get it done one way or the other.. cooking is not a problem. Also am very familiar with thickened liquids and Pureed meals. Whatever they may need I am at their disposal.

Pleased to have added a new family member.. I have been taking care of Daylene for 10 years now.. I started taking care of her husband who I am sad to say is home now.. I aid her in all of her activities of daily living.. Dr appointments, shopping, we even take trips. I pride myself on the small attention to detail that comes with an elderly person with no family.. the power of touch, flowers, I never forget an important date that is important to my client.. a bright good morning smile and a little dance to an unheard jig goes along wAy[?] I love being a companion.

I have a very big heart, I'm one of those people that most feel comfortable with me right away, enough that they will share very personal story's with me in a store, a parking lot, or walking down the street. Im also the type that is loved by every grumpy Gentleman I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I enjoy hearing stories from my clients, there is always something to learn from everyone we meet. For as long as I can remember, I've always been the mama bear type caring for everyone. I'm also very independent, out going, open minded, and can do anything that anyone else can do. From fixing a broken sprinkler to installing the whole system
