About Laurie

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

For the last two years of my parents' lives, I had the profound honor of caring for them with love, patience, and deep compassion. My 96-year-old father had dementia, and my 92-year-old mother experienced severe anxiety. I was by their side, offering gentle reassurance, comfort, and attentive support. In their final month, I sat with them each day, holding space for their breaths, their moments of peace, and their transition. I was also caregiver for my father during his cancer surgery hospital stay and months of recovery afterward. These experiences shaped me into an even more loving, kind, and deeply responsible caregiver. I understand the importance of dignity, respect, and trust in elder care, and I bring a mature, steady, and nurturing presence to those I care for. I will treat your loved one as I did my own, with patience, warmth, grace, and unwavering compassion.

Trying to find someone to truly "care" for the person or people in your life who may be vulnerable is no small task. Laurie is not only completely trustworthy, she is also dependable. She will treat your loveone/s with utter respect and her kindness to them will always be present. If my mother or father were still living, she would be the human I would want to care, laugh, and sing with them.
