Quyler joined the Home Instead family as a CAREGiver in May 2019 and in June of 2021 he moved into the office as Home Care Manager. He's excited to join this fun team, meet every single client and their family, and help keep the CAREGivers be the best that they can be.

Reyna is the youngest associate to work for the franchise, but hopes that soon she'll be ready to be trained to be a CAREGiver in addition to her office roles like the rest of the office team. Reyna looks forward to attending Carl Sandburg College in the fall of 2022 to study Radiologic Technology after she graduates high school. Reyna is usually the first voice you hear when you call the office, and she's always happy to assist you. 

Reyna is a hard worker and very dedicated to her job of the community. She is quick to learn, always has a smile on her face, and is ready to take on any new task. At her previous jobs, she maintained and enforced up to date cleanliness and social distancing policies regarding the COVID-19 outbreak, always ensuring the best safety and customer satisfaction. Reyna brings these tools and experiences to Home Instead to help give our seniors the best care and companionship.
