Hello, I work as a companion to female seniors with dementia, Alzheimer's and stroke recovery in their homes or in assisted living and occasionally in hospice. I can help with making light meals and snacks and help with laundry in addition to helping a person with her activity of daily living skills and interests. I also can run errands. I have my Masters Degree and worked for 45 years teaching children and adults with special needs. I also cared for my parents for over 10 years in their home. One had multiple strokes, the other had Lewy Body Dementia, a very difficult form of dementia. I am kind, patient and most importantly I treat each person I work with with absolute dignity. *** Please know that I only accept cash payments.

Susanne has decades of expertise, and is a patient, focused, well-educated and talented care giver. She helped our family during a difficult situation, with 2 elderly parents each dealing with their own health challenges. Susanne provided comprehensive summaries after her visits via email, and also taught us how to better manage things while looking after our elderly parents. Highly recommend.
