Mary’s Bio
Hello there! As a compassionate caregiver and recent Leadership and Learning graduate, I blend education, essential life skills, creativity, mindfulness, and hands-on care to support your loved one's quality of life. I'm excited about the opportunity to connect and discuss how we can work together to create a supportive and engaging environment.
I've called the Lanier Heights area of DC my home since 2013, and I am deeply committed to fostering a sense of community and support. My educational background equips me with the understanding to facilitate personal growth and enrich day-to-day life through meaningful activities and interactions.
Whether it's sharing in outdoor explorations, learning from historical landmarks, engaging in mindfulness practices such as yoga, or just sharing in a good book, I am confident that I can make a positive impact on your loved one's daily routine.
Animals have a special place in my life, and I am more than happy to provide pet care as part of my role. I am the proud owner of a 10lb chihuahua, Patchouli, who adds a joyful dimension to daily life. If your family doesn't have a pet but would be open to interactions, Patchouli and I can bring an additional element of companionship and joy.
Beyond the enriching activities, I also handle practical necessities like preparing healthy meals and maintaining a tidy living space. If you're looking for a dedicated, nurturing care companion who brings a holistic approach to caregiving, I look forward to hearing from you.
