About Kate

I have the ability and capability of knowing my cleint and their needs. client become a family to me. I really like what I do, so I'm dedicated to making my Seniors feel comfortable and at peace. it is hard enough for our seniors with all they go through - pain, confusion, isolation and loss of their personal freedom. empathizing with my seniors make me able to understand them and they are able to depend on me in a positive way. I took care of my grandfather. my mother being the only child, I started admiring the positive energy that she always had when she is doing personal care for her ageing father. my mom always tells me " remember you will grow old and will need help one day so, let empathy be your number one emotion" this was when my love for caring for seniors started. I love that I meet clients from all works of life and able to offer helping hand to them for them to feel good and comfortable as possible. there are so many stories in my care giving experience that make me happy when I think about them. but things that I hear my client say about me is that - am a breath of fresh air, an angel, and also they are clad they made the right decision. care giving is me and I'm care giving.
