Olivia’s Bio

I have been a nursing home activities director for 7 years, because of my love for the elderly. As an activities director, I had to utilize a wide range of talents, not just bingo and parties! I could often be found in a resident's room helping reorganize their closet, tweezing a stray eyebrow, doing their nails or makeup, helping them change into something nicer for a party, listening as they confided their worries, or showing them how to use their cell phone! I am very versatile.

I do not mind helping with cleaning, cooking (especially preparing several days worth of meals and packaging them individually for later heating), shopping, pet care, laundry, and the like. I am also a certified chair yoga instructor and exercise leader, so I can give you private exercise lessons while at your home.

I do not have experience with heavy care (such as lifting and incontinence care) but for those seniors who just need some help around the house or with some grooming needs, or even just some company, I think I could be a great help.

My rates are negotiable depending on how much help you need, and what you can afford.
