Hi there! I have a BA in Psychology and I believe my education has really helped me understand several physical and mental disabilities really well. I am also a naturally empathetic, compassionate, and patient person. I am vaccinated and boosted against Covid-19. I have family members with autism, mental illness, diabetes, and my neighbor (whom I lived next to for the first 18 years of my life) had down syndrome. I have volunteered with seniors that have memory problems before and I used to work as an in-home caregiver for a woman with mental & physical disabilities as well. I am a fast learner and I want to assist you in any way possible. I am a good communicator and I am usually quite flexible, so please, reach out and tell me about your situation and how I could help :)

    A true professional. Claire's communication skills and patience are my two favorite qualities that she possesses. She is always on top of her duties despite our family's ever-changing schedules. My mom is so happy when Claire is around to do crafts, play the ukulele, or just sit & chat. My mother is disabled and has special needs, so Claire's ability to help with housekeeping, dog walking, and transportation/errands has made our lives so much easier.
