About Stephanie
Experience: 3 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'd describe my personality as Easy going, communicative, professional I like caring for seniors because I was a group home manager for 14 years and enjoy helping people of all ages and abilities get the most out of life by providing support wherever needed. I started caring for seniors in 1994 In my spare time, I like to gardening, practicing martial arts, writing and spoiling my niece and nephews. One thing you should know about me is I practice universal precautions at all times to keep my clients safe. I have worked with clients of all ability levels. I am experienced in full personal care including Hoyer lifts and transfers and seizure care and management. My skills include patience, communication and maintaining a friendly and welcoming environment.

Our family highly recommends Stephanie as a care professional. Stephanie has been an integral member of the care team for my mother and father during the last six years. During that time, I have seen the high level of dedication, knowledge, compassion and strength of character that Stephanie brings to the difficult and arduous work necessary to care for the elderly and infirm. Her attention to the many facets of elder care is gratifying to say the least. She is dedicated to ensuring the best quality of life for the infirm elderly client and understands that patience really is a virtue when dealing on a day-to-day basis with clients who wish to remain in their home but require mid to high levels of care. Stef is an honest reliable communicator and a professional chef. She has a solid grasp on nutrition, an important attribute, as nutrition and changing tastes can become an issue for clients and caregivers with less experience. Along with being kind she can be very persuasive, another helpful skill during those less than co-operative moments. We couldn’t have made it through all the ups and downs without Stef’s dedication to my parent’s and their little dog Emma’s care. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you might have.
