About Sherry

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

My style of caregiving is empathic. I put myself in my client's shoes, so to speak. I am a senior myself. I know what it's like to be old-er(!) I am an active listener and proactive in my caregiving. I promote creativity, activity (exercising our bodies, our memory, hobbies/interests and having fun!) I can create care plans, nutrition/eating healthier. I encourage self care and autonomy (doing things for oneself when appropriate and safe). I don't baby or patronize my clients and at the same time I have compassion and patience for their process and meet them "where they are" in their journey of aging. I will take on as much or as little as the family members desire: from hiring plumbers, to paying the gardener, purchasing supplies, keeping daily notes, communicating with physicians, etc. The most meaningful purpose I have in a caregiving position is to enhance the quality of my client's life, to make a difference. To be a friend, a confidante, and care give.

Dear to Whom it May Concern and future employer of Sherry, Our family loved having Sherry work for us as caregiver for our mother. Sherry was very hands on with reassuring words, attentiveness to Mom’s needs and a reassuring massage when needed (mom’s favorite part). She was always very attentive and having had the experience of a caregiver, she always had suggestions as to how to make life better for mom. Having a caregiver was a new experience for us as a family and we could not have chosen a better person to care for Mom. We were all sad to see her move on but we were the better for it having had her expertise and knowledge of a situation we were new to experience. I’m sure you will enjoy having Sherry as a caregiver for your family member. You’re more than welcome to call if you have any questions.
