About Lindsay

Hello, I'm Lindsay! Over the past two years that I've been a caregiver, I've realized there's more to a home than just keeping tidy and a fulfilling a list of personal care needs. Caregiving requires compassion, understanding, and patience. To create a safe and loving environment for a loved one, I develop trusting and caring relationships with both my clients and their family. I cook healthy and nourishing meals daily, and plan a schedule of fun and enriching activities. I understand from my own experience what an incredible difference physical activity can make to one's mental and physical well-being, so I always include walking in nature and yoga in my schedule. If this is what you're looking for, I look forward to hearing from you! I'm willing to be flexible and make accommodations with my schedule for a full time client. I also have professional and general liability insurance.

I started caring for people even before I completed my CNA certification. I've always had a passion to help people in need and to be a companion to people that don't have anyone else. I am very passionate about what I do because I love what I do. I am very proud of the education that I continue to pursue. My ultimate goal is to become a nurse. The thing I enjoy the most about this job is the different people I get to care for. I've learned a lot from my clients ,and I know that they could be completely comfortable with me.
