About Sara

I became a caregiver by accident starting off looking after a friend's mother. I was a nursing student and it just clicked. I have a servant's heart and enjoy caring for others. I am also a trained chef who has experience in special diets e.g. gluten free, celiac, diabetic and plant based. I have been a caregiver for over 6 years working privately and with agencies. I have experience with quadraplegia, diabetes, Alzheimer's, hospice care, Peg tubes. I have outstanding references from past clients and have been caregiver of the quarter. I love what I do, allowing my clients to stay in their homes and to live to the optimum. I am English and have traveled widely, lived in 9 different countries but pleased to now be an American. I love horses, cooking & travel. I have a great sense of humor - I am English :) and am dependable. Having lived in so many different environments I am versatile and can cope with whatever comes my way.

I have 20yrs experience in caregiver/companion. I started working as a caregiver after my father had a stroke and heart attack and i had no one to help me care for him. After my father passed away, i became committed to helping other family and it became my GOD GIFT to care for my clients with as much of love as it was my own family member. It give me great pleasure taking care of peoples. This is not just a job for me but a blessing!!!
