Caregiver - Daytime

Do you have the gift? A desire to be of service to others?

Caring for seniors is a labor of love that requires a special person with just the right touch. The gift of service is a reciprocal one in that our caregivers feel they get back as much as they give:

- Leaving their shift knowing that they have made a positive difference in their client’s day.
- Providing much needed socialization and seeing their clients smile and laugh.
- Building a close rapport and a trusted friendship with their clients.
- Knowing you have given peace of mind to client's family members and loved ones.
