About Kelly

I'm a great caregiver because I'm patient, attentive, kind, outgoing, friendly, motivated and dedicated to the family I work for. I started caregiving with my grandma when she got dementia. I was very close with her and I saw how the nursing homes were treating her so I decided to love her into my home and care for her there! I'm a nurturer by heart, so caring for others loved ones comes easy. I love spending time with the people I care for and hearing their life stories and what they accomplished in life, I'm a great listener and can hold great conversation.

It has been my privilege to lovingly care for elderly people with dementia, starting with my mother-in-law. I enjoy entering their world and showing them the dignity, respect and gentle care our elders should have. I have become the trusted companion of each person I’ve cared for, and have served several of them for years at a time. Support for the family of the person I am companion to is a special part of my ministry. I am currently a part-time seminary student and simply love people. My desire is to bring joy and wisdom in caregiving to those I serve.
