Shea Van Gelder
Recruiting and Engagement Coordinator
Shea was born and raised in the Twin Cities, MN. She came to Georgia to earn her Bachelor's of Psychology and Minor in Theatre at the University of Georgia and has remained in the Peach State ever since. Shea began recruiting fresh out of college in 2017 and discovered she loved working in a position that could perfectly mix meeting new people and delivering good news daily. She began with Home Instead in January 2025 and found that recruiting can be twice as rewarding as she once thought, finding meaningful jobs for top tier caregivers and changing the lives of seniors in the community! Shea hopes to continue to grow with Home Instead for many years to come. Out of office, she spends every possible moment with her fiancé and toddler son. The three love cooking, bowling, spending time outside together, and weekend movie marathons.
