About Astarie

Taking care of others has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I was taught to look out for others needs, so this only magnified as I got older. One thing I saw with my grandparents and other other family members is they did the best health wise, when they were able to be in their own homes and spaces. As a single mom, I was introduced to home care. Not only did I get to provide for my son, I was also able to help clients stay in their safe, comfortable spaces. This brings me very much joy! I am an avid cook, and enjoy planning and organization, so this also led me to Home Care and being able to provide those services for clients. I am also the wife of a Chronically Ill spouse, so I completely understand the need for families of sick or aging members to be able to take a break but have a caregiver they can trust. I can manage medications, appointments and many other tasks if need be. I am an old soul, so spending time with the elderly is fun for me. My spouse is a dialysis patient who receives treatment at home. I administer his treatments with His machine. I never thought I'd be doing something like this, but I am proud to be able to do it for him. I would love to also be able to provide care for you or your loved one.
