"Mary Ann was truly a wonderful caregiver for my elderly parents. She was very attentive to my mom's issues with anxiety and my dad's limited mobility. She is compassionate and kind, and her excellent communication skills immediately put our family at ease. My dad is a retired physician and was pleased with the quality of her caregiving skills. Our family is so grateful for her for providing such high quality caregiving services when we needed them most!"

"I had an elderly mother that struggle with dementia as well as heart disease, and kidney disease. Taking care of her isn't easy, and in many ways she was harder than a child. Ashley could even get her to eat most of her food and all of her medicine. She could handle a cantankerous 90 year old women and treat her with the dignity and respect to the point where my mom thought she was family, where many couldn't."

She is very honest and trustworthy."
