About Laura

Experience: 2 yrs

Hi there! My name is Laura, and I have a true passion for working with seniors. I spent over two years in a nursing home as both a Social Worker and Activity Director, where I discovered how meaningful it is to bring joy, comfort, and connection to older adults. I also continue to volunteer visiting residents. My mom was a nurse, so I grew up in care facilities and naturally developed a strong bond with that generation. I'm not a medical professional, but I specialize in companionship, emotional support, and social engagement... whether it's good conversation, games, crafts, short outings, or simply being present. I'm dependable, upbeat, and easy to get along with, and I believe laughter and connection are just as important to health as anything else. If you're looking for a caring and engaging daytime companion, I'd love to chat and learn more!
