Geralyn’s Bio
Hi, I am looking for work now that my mother has passed away. I lived with my mom for 14 years. The last four years of her life I needed to take extra care of her by helping her do daily tasks, running her errands, driving her to appointments, cooking and cleaning for her, and much much more. The last two years of her life I needed to care for her 24/7. I would need to assist her in taking baths, helping her to the bathroom, changing her diapers, doing her laundry, helping her in and out of cars, lifting her, pushing her in her wheelchair, helped with her oxygen, giving her her 20 some medications daily, and a lot of other daily tasks. My mom was in and out of the hospital and also lived in rehab centers for many months. I became friends with many of the residents in the rehab centers and also with many nurses. I enjoy taking care of the elderly and am hoping to find a job doing just that. A little about myself, I have been married 33 years and have two grown children. I also have one adorable grandson. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Reviews
I hired Geralyn to watch my elderly mother for 8 full days during the Passover holiday, while we were staying at a hotel program. My mother suffers from Alzheimer's Disease. I found Geralyn to be prompt, reliable, honest and caring. She took excellent care of my mother, which included bathing, toileting, helping with dressing and with meals, as well as keeping her company during the day. I truly had peace of mind knowing Geralyn was taking care of my mother. I can wholeheartedly recommend Geralyn.
Sincerely,
Frederica Herzfeld
