About Colleen

I am a loving Mom of three children who is grateful for the opportunity to have been able to stay at home and raise them. I am also a licensed foster parent and adoptive mother. I have been an enthusiastic and dedicated volunteer for many years: bringing Communion to the homebound, serving my parish and children's schools, fundraising for various charities, and as an adaptive waterski instructor. I look forward to caring for your loved one in their home or current living arrangement.
