About Abby

I became a CG at 19, when my mom was diagnosed with cancer, and I've been sitting In general since I was 13. Ever since I was small, I've known I wanted to help people, I just never knew how, until then. I have experience with post op recovery, working with Seniors who are completely immobile, those who suffer from Alzheimer's and dementia, as well as a range of other neurological diseases. I enjoy what I do, no matter how hard it can get, because at the end I know I made a difference to somebody. My favorite part of being a caregiver as well as being a nanny, it's honestly getting to know the person and knowing that their life is just a little bit easier because I've helped.

I work with the residents, assisting them with daily needs, such as (but not limited too): Medication, bathing, dressing, changing (briefs/ cleaning up when accidents occur), among other things. We help them maintain a sense of independence and home, while giving them a sense of security and well being.

I am a very loving person that will treat your family memeber exactly how I would treat my own, with the same love and care. I have such a big heart for those that need help, and especially for working with geriatrics. I love to help others grow and to help themselves and to show care when others haven't.
