Laura is an excellent caregiver,. She provided exactly the care we needed for both my husband who has short term memory loss and me. Laura is kind, dependable , flexible,  and has a good sense of humor which is very important to us.   She is an excellent driver and enjoys cooking. We were lucky to have found Laura on Care.com as she made it possible for us to have a lovely, safe and worry free 2 months in our summer home. We are looking forward to having her back in our life next summer.

We welcomed Laura into our family to care for our 65 year old father after his Parkinson's disease progressed to a need for full-time care. Our dad was a Florida Rancher , and remaining at home was incredibly important to him. Laura is exceptional. For over a year she managed his care. As his needs increased she built out and coordinated a care team  . She managed medical appointments and coordinated with physicians and providers. Medication management was key to his wellbeing . What made Laura so special is that she cared for my father as a whole person. She made sure his emotional and physical well being were always a priority. On good days they would bike through the ranch. She baked his favorite blueberry cobbler and made sure he never ran out of fruit salad. Laura became our Dad's last best friend. During his final days she worked with Hospice and stayed by his side. Any family would be fortunate to have Laura caring for someone they love.  

Laura is a thoroughgoing professional, both knowledgeable and personable. My wife loved her and although her tenure was short (my wife passed away recently) it truly was a pleasure to have her as a caregiver  

We added Laura to my father's care team and she was a blessing. Her experience showed in everything she did for him. Laura shared many tips that improved his day and showed how much she cared. Her advice and guidance to me as the person managing his care was greatly appreciated. We would definitely would recommend hiring her.

Laura is reliable and trustworthy. She has cared for my paralyzed mom performing the bowel program, getting her in her Hoya lift, bed bathes, physical therapy, meal prep and even taking her dogs for walks. 

Laura recently worked with a client of mine. She is very caring, compassionate, and provides excellent care overall. I would highly recommend her as a caregiver.

Laura recently cared for a client of mine that had multiple comorbidities.  Laura cared for him as if her were family.  She was caring, compassionate, and provided great hands on care.  I would highly recommend her to others.

The regular caregiver for my MIL went on vacation the same week that we had already planned to be out of the country. We hired Laura through Care.com and she was great. We had complete peace of mind. Good updates and I feel like she went above and beyond. Would definitely hire again. 

There are not enough good words to describe Laura. We hired her to help care for my 101yo grandmother during her remaining weeks of life. I hired a caregiver. But what I got was the most amazing person ever. She went above and beyond. She did everything with my grandma from dressing, bathing, meals, meds, engaging her in different fun activities. She truly made my grandma’s remaining weeks, some of her best in years. And, in that time, Laura became a treasured part of our family. I’m sad to have lost my grandma, but I’m forever grateful to have had Laura come in to our lives. I recommend her 1000%. 

I will be forever grateful our family found Laura when we did! My grandmother was coming home from rehab after falling and breaking her femur at 92 years old. I was scrambling to find full-time in-home help. I was juggling work, kids, and grandma's care. I had verbally hired someone that fell through at the last minute. Then, Laura popped up and boy was that the best-case scenario. One of those happy accident moments, that the first lady fell through. Laura turned out to be a true GEM!  Laura is a great communicator, kind, empathetic, eager to help, and always on time! She helped my grandmother find her confidence and get back on her feet! She no longer needs full-time help, but we keep in touch with Laura and wish her all the best. I know many families out there may find themselves in my shoes and I hope they find Laura! 

Laura was exceptional.  She took care of all my needs and then some. She was always on time came early stayed late   I enjoyed her company and appreciated all she did for me. I would recommend her!!

Laura was not only prompt but incredibly organized and did above and beyond her duties. She organized medical information, medication’s, and insured safety, and cleanliness.

Laura is very nice and caring. She is good at what she does along with being a good person. She is very reliable and punctual.

Laura has been an incredible help to our family in many ways.  Her calm, patient, dependable demeanor makes her very easy to work with, and her underlying skill, knowledge, and creativity in care-giving brings an extra element of both professionalism and personality to everything she does.  Sometimes, as family-member caregivers, we get stuck into routines - we didn't know how much we needed Laura's fresh perspectives, ideas, and approaches until working with her, and we are truly grateful for her help and her time.

Laura did a very nice job of supporting my older father with his daily activities, and was a thoughtful, attentive presence in their home. She was easy to work with and communicative with my siblings and me and we would recommend her as a caregiver for your elderly parents.

Laura is a kind, attentive and caring individual. Laura worked with my mother post stroke. Laura was always punctual. What stuck us most was her ability to get mom to open up and laugh. Definitely would rehire.

I know her personally from her family and caring for my mom.

Laura is a very compassionate engaging person. She is very dependable and trustworthy. I would be very happy and  feel at ease with my loved one in her care.

Laura is dependable, hardworking, intelligent, and compassionate. She goes the"extra mile". She would definitely be an asset to any employer.
