About Deirdre

I am a kind, patient caregiver with 5+ years of experience supporting older adults and individuals in Manhattan and Queens. My background includes Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, aphasia, post-fall recovery, and companionship. For 4 years I was the steady companion for a lovely lady with Alzheimer's - caring for her at home, advocating in hospital/rehab, and helping her adjust to assisted living. Families value my reliability, updates, and respectful approach. I love making each day meaningful with music, painting, conversation, outings, and memory-prompting. I also assist with personal care, medication reminders, supervised exercise, meals, errands, and daily routines. Whether providing specialized support or simple companionship, I treat every client as family - with dignity, patience, and kindness.
