Hello, I'm Zola. I provide private senior companionship and lifestyle support for independent seniors and their families, primarily in Manhattan & Brooklyn. My approach is calm, thoughtful and highly dependable with an emphasis on dignity, discretion and meaningful engagement. I bring over 10 years of experience supporting seniors in personal and professional settings, including 5 years closely involved in the daily care of my grandmother until the age of 95, which shaped my calm presence. More recently, I worked privately with a hearing-impaired senior, accompanying her to cultural outings such as the theater, Opera, Broadway performances, neighborhood walks, and shared meals. Clear communication, patience, and adaptability were essential. I specialize in companionship and light lifestyle support, including conversation, outings, errands, scheduling reminders, and day-to-day organization. I work best with families seeking a reliable, discreet presence during the week.
Zola has worked with my family as a senior companion for our grandmother and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is warm, dependable, and brings such genuine care and joy to her work. Zola has a natural ability to connect with seniors and provide not only support but also meaningful companionship. During her time with us, she assisted with errands, meal preparation, fun activities, and most importantly, brought a wonderful positive energy into our grandmothers life. Whether it was walks in the park or heartfelt conversations at home, Zola made each moment feel special. She is truly passionate about what she does, and it shows in the way she listens, engages, and makes those in her care feel seen and valued. Her positive impact on my family was very profound, and even prompted us to hire her again as a caretaker for our two young children when the time came. Any family would be lucky to have Zola as part of their support system.
