About Karen

I love helping people who need help with the tasks for independent living. I took care of my elderly mother for 6 years and found it to be very rewarding to me spiritually. She was very, very thankful for my kindness and empathy. This is important to me to make a difference for someone who needs help!

    I'm at a point in my life where quality matters. After my own Cancer struggle ( 2014-2016) I want to assist those with needs and bring joy to them and myself. I'm a people person, have helped elderly parents, in laws and neighbors from strokes, heart surgery rehab, dementia , Parkinson's, and blindness. I'm a mom, Nanna, wife and a friend. I'd like to find a job or two where I can be a companion type caregiver. Love pets, non- smoker, and have transportation.
