About Lynda
Experience: 10 yrs
I have enjoyed 20+ year professional career advising elders and their families about senior living options and helping them transition to different care settings. I recently transitioned my own 90-year-old mother to assisted living and found out first hand how difficult the process is for all involved - and how much we can all use a helping hand from time to time. My goal is help seniors, like my mom, live as independently as possible by providing personalized services with compassion. While I do not provide "hands on" care such as bathing and incontinence assistance, I do provide many other services that will help your loved one live life to the fullest. Shopping and Errands Meal Prep and Light Housekeeping Appointment scheduling and escorting Pet Care and Vet transport Moving Assistance: packing, unpacking, organizing Home Watch services for vacationing elders Companionship and Outings (trips to movies, dining out, etc) Correspondence, bill sorting, computer work
Most recent review
My parents gave up the driving so we were looking for someone who could take them shopping, to the doctor's office, and run other errands. We interviewed a number of people and we could not have chosen a better person for the job. Lynda's primary responsibility was driving, but her experience with working with the elderly was so beneficial in understanding their emotions of giving up driving. Lynda became a trusted friend to my parents and the family. We could not have imagined a better person to help care for my parents. I would highly recommend Lynda for any job, especially working with the elderly.
