About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have many years of experience caring for my mother who suffers from a very debilitating disease. Plus 9 yrs on job experience Currently & last 6 years I've worked for 3 busy families, providing all aspects of domestic care Child to senior care and household management. The 3 years prior, I was a caregiver to an elderly gentleman . I had grown to love him like my own family member. Unfortunately, he had dementia and sadly, it took his life.. Prior to Ted I was "Home health aide" for Bill. I love senior care as I love to work with elders. Prior to domestic services, I worked as top tier escalations manager, for AT&T until co reorg forced to take buyout. I would love to meet and provide companionship and care for you or your loved one. I can also help with grooming, shopping, light cooking and housekeeping, errands, appointments, mobility assistance, and more!

Karen went beyond with being attentive to my grandfather who had dementia. She shared ideas that would help him and would bring things that we could use to help care for him better. I never doubted that he was being taken care of properly. She was very respectful to our family during a very trying time. She stayed with us, even when he got very combative and worked through that stage with us, so that we could keep him at home. Thank you Karen for allowing us to give him the best possible care!
