Meet Our Team

My name is Judy Salcido and I’m so happy to be working for Home Instead Senior Care Franchise. It’s been a long journey to get here but God has orchestrated every move. It all started two years ago when I was laid off from a large oil company in Houston where I worked for many years in Health, Safety & Environmental. Even though I loved the job and friends, I was NOT devastated. I knew exactly where I was going! I was going to put my house on the market, my things in storage, pack up the dog and head to Georgetown, Texas! My father was living alone after my precious mother died of Alzheimer’s two years prior and I knew he needed help. Our family had many discussions about moving him to Houston but he always said he would rather be ‘home instead’ than anywhere else in the world. Being his caregiver for the last year of his life was the most amazing thing I have ever done and I knew that I wanted to continue helping others. Because God knew my heart and allowed me the opportunity to help my parents (John & Audrey), I will be forever faithful to Him in this beautiful Montgomery County working with an awesome staff and great Caregivers.

Most of us will want to continue living at home for as long as we are able. Our homes are not just a place but a feeling, a refuge, a place of beautiful memories and comfort. If our team can assist you in keeping your loved ones home we would be happy to partner with you. https://youtu.be/WUE9di0kvq8

I have three adult children (all in this area) who have given me eleven gorgeous grandkids! I am active in my church and in my free time love to be with friends, cuddle my ferocious 10 pound dog, take pictures and read. Oh and my daughter (below) is my partner.

My name is Erin Cuthbertson and am delighted to serve the Montgomery County senior community. I have always had a heart to serve in whatever capacity needed. I graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY where I met my husband, David. After graduation we served eight years in Army together and decided to start a family. We have been blessed with 5 beautiful children, Audrey, Jack, Adam, Beth and Ian, who love to be outdoors and are always up for an adventure. We have thousands of miles of road trips under our belt and cannot wait for the next thousand!

Our senior care journey began with my grandparents and assisting my mother while she cared for them. My grandfather, especially, was most happy when he was home in an environment that felt safe and familiar. As family, we were able to spend a lot more time with him as well. He spent many hours just watching his great grandchildren play tag in his yard and challenged them to countless games of chess. They were moments that were worth more than words can express. Seeing how much that meant to him and knowing that he was happy, is part of what inspired our journey in senior care.

I have found that I am the best version of myself when I am making difference in my local community. I am incredibly grateful to be a part of Home Instead Senior Care and its mission to provide quality care to our Seniors.

It has been my pleasure to have worked for worked Home Instead for eight years as the Staffing/Scheduling Coordinator to create and maintain client and CAREGiver schedules to create high quality matches and the development of extraordinary relationships.

I recently received a promotion as the Client Care Coordinator. In this position I will be visiting with potential clients and family members to develop a personalized care plan tailored to meet the needs of your loved ones. Having worked with our wonderful CAREGivers for so long I am excited to work with you to help support your needs. It is my goal to offer dependable, compassionate care to enhance their lives in the Montgomery County area.

I have lived in Montgomery county for 25 years and have 3 lovely grandchildren.

I look forward to meeting you!

My name is Jacqueline Thomson, and I feel honored to be a part of a team that enhances the lives of seniors in our community.  I grew up in the Inland Northwest and graduated with a degree in Communication Disorders.  My favorite clients were seniors who brought so much joy and determination to our speech therapy sessions.  After working with seniors as well as children in a clinical setting, I decided to pursue my education further at the University of Wyoming, where I met my husband, Jeff.  We have been married for 28 years and have three amazing daughters.

We have lived in Montgomery County for 25 years, occasionally moving to South Korea for my husband’s job.  I was able to teach English overseas and spend valuable time raising my daughters.  We were able to travel and have many adventures as a family.  During this time, my sister and I were able to care for our ailing parents.  The resilience and adaptability I saw in my parents during this difficult time, have provided a foundation for my life. Taking care of our parents in their home was a blessing that I feel led to help others provide for their loved ones.  In my position as Recruitment and Retention Coordinator, I aim to find quality Caregivers with a heart of gold, who exemplify compassion, patience, and the ability to give exceptional care to our clients.

My name is Karla Knightstep and I feel very blessed to be a part of this wonderful team that gives back to my community.  I was born on the East Coast but grew up on the West Coast.  I went to High School in Hollister, CA, which is more farm life than the clothing brand portrays.  It is very similar to The Woodlands in many ways I feel like.  Prior to moving to Texas, I was a on the front lines as a first responder as a 9-1-1 Dispatcher for 20 years where I experienced a variety type of calls in the police, fire and medical fields. 

I met my husband while working as a dispatcher and we are blessed with a son and daughter who are working hard to become elite athletes.  Unfortunately, my husband suffered an on-duty traffic accident as a police officer and had to be medically retired out.  I’ve learned a lot about caregiving by needing to care for him after his may surgeries. I enjoy being able to take care of others and look forward to my role as the Service Coordinator and caring for both my CarePros and clients!
