Sarah’s Bio

About Me

Hi! My name is Sarah and I am passionate about providing compassionate, reliable care for individuals of all abilities. I bring over 25 years of experience as a special-needs teacher, specializing in working with severe and profound students who require life skills training and personalized support. I also have an autism endorsement, equipping me with advanced strategies to work effectively with individuals on the spectrum.

Additionally, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Alzheimer’s patients, helping them maintain dignity and comfort in their daily lives. I am CPR certified, experienced with G-tube feedings, and proficient in using assistive devices like the Hoyer lift, ensuring safe and effective transfers for individuals with mobility challenges.

My extensive background has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and adapting to each person’s unique needs. Whether it’s offering companionship, assisting with daily tasks, or creating meaningful connections, I am here to help.

I look forward to the opportunity to provide the care and support your loved one deserves!
