I have my own medical equipment and can use lifts. I'm trustworthy, reliable and available for last minute work. I can do light housekeeping, organizing and meal prep. I can provide all personal care. I have excellent references. I have worked many years in institutional settings. I am now looking to work with one or two nice people I am available afternoons and evenings as well as all day weekends.

My husband and I hired Leah to sit overnight with my MIL during her rehab stay. Unfortunately, she ended up in hospice care, and Leah was the excellent choice. She has such a depth of knowledge and was more than happy to share it with us. When speaking with her, she is kind and honest. She sat with my MIL overnight for about a week before she passed, and Leah was excellent with her. She was more than happy to answer texts/calls about mom's condition and obliged us by filling out a progress sheet to let us know how she did overnight. My husband, brother-in-law, and I highly recommend Leah.
