Meet Our Team

A couple years back while my grandmother was aging and suffering through a fall and the onset of dementia, I had a firsthand look at the strain caring for an aging senior can have on their loved ones. Even though my grandmother had 10 kids I could still see how difficult it was to be able to adequately provide the care she needed. During my 13 years with Home Instead Senior Care I have seen firsthand the difference a CAREGiver could have had to enable my grandmother to age safer and more comfortably in her home where she was comfortable. Through Home Instead Senior Care I look forward to now having the opportunity to help families in the Brantford, Paris, Simcoe, Delhi, Port Dover, Woodstock, and Ancaster area to provide the best possible care for their loved ones.

Over the years, Christina has had first-hand experience in caring for loved ones with Alzheimer's and dementia. Christina also knows and understands the impact of caring for aging family members in the community and the struggles that come along with navigating the senior care world here in Hamilton.
