I am very passionate about helping people. I love good manners and smiling at everyone I encounter, it's contagious! I grew up around many retired people in my neighborhood, as well as visiting the folks at the retirement home where my mother worked. This instilled in me a great sense of respect for my elders. As an adult I have over 10 years of experience working in the home health care field with seniors as well as adults with developmentally disabilities, ranging in ages from 30s-80s. I have had clients with Alzheimer, dementia, down syndrome, Tourette syndrome, epilepsy, seizures and Parkinson disease. I have assisted clients with daily household chores/light cleaning, prepared meals, driving them to appointments/errands, ordered and administered medications, guided them in exercise, engaged in puzzles and activities to keep the mind stimulated, etc. I also have CPR/First Aid certifications. I would love to provide care and assistance for you or your loved ones!

Kristin has been helping care for my 88 year old father who is mid stage Alzheimer's since May 2014. Kristin immediately bonded with my father and our whole family! Her bright cheery personality truly is contagious and brightens any room! From the very beginning, Kristin showed a genuine concern for my father and made a special effort to learn everything she could about him, his life story and his care plan. She shows maturity beyond her years, she has proven to be extremely reliable, dependable, flexible and always keeps communication lines open. Kristin instantly set our family at ease that she would care my father as if he were her own...and my father would be in very competent and loving hands. Kristin brings a genuine love of people (especially her elders) and is a gifted caregiver. I highly recommend Kristin for anyone needing support caring for an aging parent.
