About Jennifer

I am a caring person who can provide helpful services to your loved one. I can assist with personal or companion care, as well as run errands/transportation and do light housekeeping. I am patient, loving and a great listener. I enjoy helping people who cannot take care of themselves. It is important for everyone to feel like they have control of their lives and if I can help them regain some of that control, I am doing my job effectively. Everyone needs help at some time in their life, but they don't always have someone to count on to fill that need. I can be that person for your loved one...I can take care of them just like you would if you were there. I am diabetic, so have experience taking care of other diabetics and cooking healthy meals for them. I help my parents all the time with their household needs and grocery shopping, which makes me feel like I am giving a little back for all the work they did taking care of me while I was growing up.
