About Valerie

Experience: 3 yrs

With three years of experience supporting adults and seniors, I am deeply committed to their well-being and independence. My background as a Registered Nurse, coupled with my CPR and First Aid training, allows me to provide comprehensive and compassionate care. I adapt to changing routines and handle any confusion, agitation, or behavioral changes with patience. I can assist your loved ones with transportation, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I prioritize creating a comfortable environment and always follow the family's preferred communication method. I'm compassionate, friendly, and detail-oriented. I would love to bring my skills and positive energy to your family.

I had the pleasure of working with Valerie as she cared for my mother, M, following her hip surgery. During this time, my mother required attentive and compassionate care due to her post-surgical recovery needs, diabetes management, and limited mobility. Valerie worked in our home three to four days a week, typically eight to ten hours per day, providing consistent, reliable, and professional support. Valerie demonstrated exceptional skill in wound care, medication assistance, and mobility support. She was patient, gentle, and detail-oriented—qualities that brought my mother a sense of comfort and dignity during a very vulnerable time. She maintained a calm and reassuring presence, communicated clearly about changes in my mother’s condition, and collaborated well with medical professionals when necessary. Beyond her clinical competence, Valerie showed genuine warmth and empathy. She took the time to engage my mother in conversation, encouraged her through her physical challenges, and fostered an environment of trust and respect. Her ability to balance professional skill with heartfelt care made a tremendous difference in my mother’s recovery process. I wholeheartedly recommend Valerie for any caregiving role. She is dependable, compassionate, and exceptionally capable—someone who treats her clients as if they were her own family. April C
