About Valerie

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello, my name is Valerie. Having raised my only son as a single mom, I became adept at household responsibilities and I would like to lighten your load. I have spent my career in healthcare, as a dental hygienist, so helping and being with people is second nature to me. I am college educated/degreed and am CPR certified. I am here to assist with cooking, running errands, doctor visits, grocery shopping, companionship, helping to get in daily movement/activity, daily home tasks etc. Over the past few years, I have helped with patients with dementia, cooked meals for those with illnesses, driven seniors to doctor's appointments and bought their groceries, assisted with packing and provided companionship. I am comfortable with dogs, ALLERY to cats and perfume/scented plug-ins/drier sheets

Valerie was a wonderful helper and caregiver for my elderly mother. She was comforting and kind, and always patient with my mom who suffered from alzheimers and memory loss, and an angel of support to me. Valerie was dependable and always on time. She was a peaceful presence at a difficult time in our home. d
