Getting Started
What happens during a Meet & Greet?
It’s a relaxed chance for us to get to know one another. We can talk about what you’re looking for help with, your schedule, and what would make everyday life a little easier.
Is there any obligation afterward?
Not at all. The Meet & Greet is simply a chance to see if we’re a good fit. There’s no pressure to move forward.
How do I know what kind of support I need?
You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet. We can talk about what’s becoming difficult, what you’d like help with, and where having an extra set of hands would make the biggest difference.
About My Visits
Will I always see Courtney?
Yes. The Adopted Granddaughter is personally operated by me, so you’ll have the same familiar face coming into your home and getting to know your routines and preferences.
What can you help with during a visit?
Every visit can look a little different. I can help with companionship, light household tasks, organizing and decluttering, mail and paperwork, technology, errands, appointment support, furniture assembly and other everyday tasks that help life run a little more smoothly.
Can support change over time?
Absolutely. Needs change, and the support I provide can change with them. We can adjust what we focus on during visits as life changes.
For Families
How will I know how my loved one is doing?
I provide a simple update after each visit so you know how things went and whether there’s anything you should be aware of.
Can more than one family member receive updates?
Yes. With your loved one’s permission, updates can be shared with the family members who need to stay in the loop.
Trust & Safety
Do you provide transportation?
Yes. Transportation can be included as part of scheduled visits for active monthly clients. It is not offered as a standalone driving service. If transportation would be helpful, we can talk about what you need during your complimentary Meet & Greet.
Yes. I am fully insured, have a current Vulnerable Sector Check, and am certified in First Aid and CPR.
​
Â
No. The Adopted Granddaughter provides non-medical support. I do not replace a nurse, PSW or other healthcare professional. My role is to help with the everyday things that can make staying at home easier and less overwhelming.
Are you fully insured?
Do you provide medical or personal care?
Still Have a Question?
Every person and family is different. Sometimes the easiest way to know whether The Adopted Granddaughter is the right fit is simply to have a conversation.
