I spent two years providing services for an elderly gentleman who had severe diabetes, had lost his legs, was nearly blind and hard of hearing. Years later, I became my mother's caretaker for three years, while working for the Family Stress Center and Children and Family Services assisting Social Workers and families. Then, 14 years ago I started working with the older population full time. I have helped and assisted many individuals and families during this time, with general assistance, shopping, cooking, appointments, and light house cleaning, and many times being their companion. I have taken care of both men and woman ages 74-101! Some of whom have had dementia or Alzheimer's. I care deeply for helping people feel as independent as possible and empowering them to be able to function to their best abilities, always respecting their individuality.

I had the pleasure of hiring Dyann to drive my mother to Kaiser Vallejo several times a week for 7 weeks. I was very impressed with Dyann, her professional manner, punctuality, kindness, communication and trusted her fully to execute her duties. The job included helping my mother into/out of a car, loading her into a wheelchair, taking her to an appointment and then reversing the process to get my mother home again. Dyann was prompt to return calls and emails and worked with me when schedules changed. Should the need arise, I will hire Dyann again with no hesitation. She's top notch.
