Lora N.
5.0
I needed a last minute caretaker for my dad. He's difficult sometimes as he's struggling with early memory loss. She was quick to respond and chat about what the needs were. She stayed with my dad all day and offered to come help the next day if needed. Dad loved spending the day with her.
