Elder Care in Hamilton, Ontario
I'm an
Individual
Hi there, so nice to meet you! I am a very compassionate, friendly, bubbly elder care provider looker for clients around the Brant/Hamilton/Burlington area. Having completed a BA in Gerontology and Health Studies from McMaster University, I gained the knowledge and skills needed to work with elderly in a professional manner. I also have certification in Applied Behavioural Analysis from Mohawk College, and this education is especially beneficial for individuals with early stages of dementia. I am very passionate about providing compassionate care for individuals in an ethical manner. If you are looking for someone to act as a companion, be of emotional assistance, help with household duties, provide dementia care or personal care, I take much pride in providing exceptional care.
I believe that you will find my skills and experience to be very well suited to the caregiver position you are looking for!
I have had many wonderful opportunities working with senior citizens and have over 8 years of experience working in the field. I specialize in working with individuals in early and late stages of dementia.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

I cannot say enough about Spencer C and her work with our mother who is in LTC with late-stage dementia. Spencer has been working with our mother since January 2018. Spencer is not only reliable, timely, conscientious, deeply trustworthy and an excellent communicator she also is a beautiful person who genuinely and creatively engages our mother in ways that support her (and ultimately the whole family's) well being. Spencer has brought a sense of peace to our family in her ability to be present with our mother and to think wholistically about all our mother's needs. She has helped us know how best to support our mother as she declines. She communicates and sends photos during her time with our mother alerts us to any emerging issues. She is always reading more to further understand the issues related with our mother's condition and offers us many different ways to connect with and support our mother. As well, Spencer is well able to work with LTC staff to support my mother. Most notably, Spencer is a beautiful soul whose authenticity and loveliness touches us all, especially our mother. I really cannot imagine how much more difficult this journey would have been without Spencer.
