Reviewed on 11/26/2023

Joanna, promptly agreed to a personal interview, arrived on time and professionally dressed. She explained her past exerience and comfort level her experience with elderly, forgetful seniors. I explained the care I would be needing for my 93 year old aunt and we agreed on the day and time to pick her up at nursing home, bring her to my home and come back for her to return to nursing home. Once again, Joanna was on time and my aunt arrived at my home happily and Joanna was on time to pick her up to return to nursing home. My aunt is NOT the easiest person to interact with and I was so pleased and amazed on how easily Joanna managed to keep her happy, calm and enjoying the adventure. I would definately use Joanna in the future and recommend her as a caring, patient, kind and fun to be with care giver.
