About Iris

I truly believe in celebration of life at all stages and ages. I enjoy being able to bring sunshine in somebody else's day. Especially in a digital society, where humanity and preservation of dignity sometimes end up on the back burner, I truly believe in mutual respect and making the best out of every situation. I have been raised by my dear grandmother in Germany, was able to take care of her in her final days and would enjoy making your or your loved one's day a bit brighter. If you look for the average person for the job, I am NOT the right one. If you prefer the person who values individuality and personal choices, I just might be your match. I would love to meet you to find out if we are able to establish common grounds. I look forward to hearing from you.

I have always cared about the failing & ailing, whether it be family, friend, neighbor, or referral. I am in Nursing school. I have also helped people solve personal problems; ie, helped a senior get back his social security $$ when someone else defrauded his account. I actively listen and encourage people to make their own choices.

I'm an honest, reliable, gentle person who enjoys making someone feel cared for. I used to work in an office, but felt a calling to work with seniors instead, and it was the best decision I could have made. I'm happy to help with housework, errands, cooking, pet care, personal care - whatever is needed. I can be good company, or I can stay out of the way, but I will always do my best to make you comfortable and happy.
