Private In-Home Providers Serving Whidbey Island

I was a caregiver for both of my parents and also several very close friends that’s suffered from dementia. I was also a primary caregiver for two other individuals who have sinse passed away. English. Handywork, painting.

I have worked as a Home Health Care Provider, Patient Care Technician, Hospice and Companionship. I specialize in medical skills, meal preparation, transfers, transportation, medication reminder, pet care, gardening, computer skills, activities of daily living, and errands.

As a warm-hearted and dedicated home health caregiver with 38 years as an island resident, I offer nearly four decades of compassionate, hands-on experience in hospice, private-duty home health, med/surg, NICU, labor & delivery, and newborn nursery environments. Having served in hospitals as a CNA, patient care technician, and health unit coordinator, I’ve developed strong skills in essential medical and personal care—including safe transfers, medication reminders, wound dressing and bandage care, bathing, assistance with activities of daily living, transportation, companionship, errands, light housekeeping, and clerical/computer support—to help clients maintain dignity, independence, and comfort at home. What brings me the most joy beyond professional caregiving is sharing life’s simple pleasures: preparing gourmet meals and baked goods, crafting homemade fruit preserves, gifting fresh roses and vegetables from my gardens, playing my guitar, and designing handmade greeting cards as a watercolor artist. With a genuine smile and heartfelt dedication, I’m committed to making every day feel brighter, safer, and more meaningful for those I have the privilege to serve.

Have been a CNA for 27 years, I have great references from past and present family members, I am a great cook, experienced with dementia\ Alzheimer’s clients, I have worked in nursing homes, Adult Family Homes, for an Agency, & private care. Can offer services from Freeland North.
