About Colleen

Experience: 4 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am a mother of four grown children, a retired NYC Police Officer, I also worked as a medical assistant at a Drs office and hospital while living in New York. I am now happily retired living in beautiful palm beach county with my husband looking to help a family or a senior as a caregiver. Something I have been doing my whole life. I have experience taking care and being a companion to a beautiful senior with dementia. I was also the full time caretaker to both my parents during their terminal illnesses

I had the pleasure of having Colleen care for my Mom with Alzheimer’s Disease and could not have asked for a better caregiver! She is extremely compassionate and patience which are the 2 most important qualities in dealing with the elderly. Also, she was extremely reliable which was extremely important as I worked full time !! She was never late and always found creative ways to keep my Mom engaged which was very important to me. I did not want my Mom to just sit on the couch all day ! Colleen would take her for walks , shopping , play games and even made a memory book for her !!! She was amazing and anyone would be lucky to have her watch their loved ones.
