Prior to coming to Home Instead, Jennifer had been a preschool teacher for over 10 years. When the pandemic hit, it was time for a change. Jennifer’s search led her to Home Instead where the vision statement resonated with her – “together blessing lives through courage, responsibility and love”. She began her journey with Home Instead as a CAREGiver and soon after moved into an office role. She firmly believes that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect and compassion regardless of their age or life circumstances. Jennifer keeps busy as a wife and mother of two children. She loves paddling with her dragon boat team and coordinating the food pantry at her church.

After years of being an at-home mom, Brittany felt inspired to start working part-time outside the home. Her search led her to Home Instead where she was hires as both a CAREGiver and an On-Call Supervisor. Brittany teaches her children to spread as much kindness as they can every day; and her work at Home Instead gives her so many opportunities to do just that. Brittany cherishes the relationships she has formed with clients and their families as well as the CAREGivers and office team. She says she could not ask for a better group of people to work with. She lives by our vision statement “to bless lives through courage, responsibility, and love,” and it shows in everything she does at Home Instead. Brittany is thrilled that she has found work that is fulfilling, and where she can support, encourage, and lift the lives of those we serve.
