Alyson’s Bio

It is more important than ever to find connection for our kids and loved ones in this ever-changing world. I offer compassionate care grounded in humor, emotional support, and ability to meet a person's needs where they are at developmentally.

1 year experience as a care companion for the elderly with Alzheimer's and dementia. In addition to this, my late grandfather had dementia for 6 years and we spent quality time together. I understand the physical and emotional pressures these conditions put our loved ones through. I am able to provide emotional support, activities catered to abilities, light housekeeping, meal prep, and outings to places they'd like to visit, such as the grocery store, restaurants, doctors visits, or the beach.

7 years experience babysitting, 3 years experience teaching art to children ages 3-13. We will have engaging activities, outdoor play, and I can provide light housekeeping, potty training assistance (if necessary), and general care.
