About Sarah
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a fit, upbeat and mature caregiver with over 10 years experience in home healthcare. I received my CNA certification years ago after an intensive hospital training program. After many years in corporate America I came back to home healthcare when my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer. I am well-versed in caring for patients with quadriplegia, dementia, MS, diabetes and general geriatric needs. I'm compassionate and caring and have a good sense of humor. I love to cook. Animals love me. Those two things are not necessarily related. Over the past 10 years of live-in care I have been responsible for all aspects of home management including planning healthy meals, cooking, shopping, errands, laundry, transportation, travel and pet care in addition to providing superior personal care to my clients. I have an old school work ethic and pride myself in a job well done and in keeping a positive attitude. I look forward to hearing from you!

Sarah was wonderful. She responded on care.com right away and was very helpful in caring for me after a medical procedure. I highly recommend her.
