About Amy

I was a stay at home mom for 16 years with my triplet girls. During that time I helped with my father who had dementia, so that he could comfortably stay in his own home with my mom. For three years I have been an in home caregiver to a stroke survivor who recently passed. I do laundry, prepare light meals, bathe, help with personal needs, give medication, drive to appointments, and provide compassionate care and companionship. Willing to take your loved one on outings such as to the mall, movies or hairdresser. I'm looking for approximately 35 - 40 hours per week. My goal is to make your loved one comfortable and happy and to be able to stay in their own home. References available. Background check done 10/29/18. Able to provide copy/proof upon request.

Hello, my name is Marlena and I have been a caregiver since 2015. I am always helping others so that is a reason to my liking to work as a caregiver. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the ability to help others and spread joy. The personal achievement that I am proud of is that I recently was part of a commitee for the American Cancer Society Breast Cancer walk. All of the meetings and walk throughs, the event turned out to be wonderfully fun.
