Bertha is a loving, gentle person who has helped my parents maintain a happy, calm household despite my Mom's Alzheimer's. Bertha always puts my Mom at ease, keeps her safe, cooks nourishing meals, does all the grocery shopping, takes Mom on outings and keeps her company with conversation and easy laughter. Bertha has over 15 years experience -- including considerable dementia experience -- as a caregiver for elders and special needs kids. Bertha brings a lot to the table including a sunny disposition, excellent conversation and listening skills, a love of cooking, experience with wheelchair transfers, a clean driving record and a reliable vehicle. She is 100% trustworthy, and someone you will come to think of as a family member over time. I wholeheartedly recommend Bertha without any reservations whatsoever. Deb Bryant
