About Amy

I am a very compassionate and caring person. I have worked with and for the elderly. The reason of my caregiving, arrives from my childhood, growing up on a dairy farm and being taught responsibilities, respect and to care for our grandparents. I have been, a stay at home mom, to our 3 amazing children and a few years ago, I was approached to proved, what I give them, to their elderly parent. I loved it and loved them! I've enjoyed listening to their personal stories, listening to their era of music. I MAKE it ALL about them. What makes me feel good, being a Caregiver, is when I can make a Client smile and laugh, when that happens, that's an achievement for me.
