Hi! My name is Simone, I'm originally from Germany and speak fluent German, English and some Italian. I've lived in the US for 20+ years, I am a U. S. citizen and live here with my husband and 10-year-old daughter. I'm trained as Certified Medical Assistant and I also have an Associate's degree as a Physical Therapist Assistant though no current license. I have worked in the medical field for 25+ years and enjoy working with seniors very much, they are my preferred clientele. I can check blood pressure, help with medications, physical therapy exercises, safe transfers and walking. I have some experience with dementia and understand the challenges that can come with it. I am open to helping with different things you might need. References available upon request.

We hired Simone to visit and take care of my 87 year old mother in law. She made lunch and took my mother in law on walks and assisted with baths. Simone worked for us for approximately 12 hours/week during 2021 and 2022. She is a lovely person, and an amazing and capable caregiver. My mother in law looked forward to her visits. She is incredibly thoughtful, often bringing games or small treats or articles that she thought might be of interest or might be helpful. She is also very patient-my mother in law has dementia and repeats the same questions and stories over and over. I highly recommend Simone, and would definitely hire her again.
