About the Home

Shirley’s home is a two-story, single-family residence offering approximately 4,000 square feet of living space. The home includes five bedrooms, a bonus room, and three and a half bathrooms, as well as a three-car garage. It sits on roughly three acres of land and is located on a quiet road, providing a spacious and peaceful setting.

Shirley views caregiving as building a strong foundation of trust, where individuals feel safe being themselves without fear of judgment. She believes consistency and reliability are essential, showing up each day in ways individuals can depend on, and she values meeting people where they are. Shirley approaches care with flexibility, understanding that needs can change and support should adapt accordingly. Drawing from her years of experience, Shirley remains calm and steady during challenges, focusing on solutions rather than setbacks. She finds the most meaning in creating a sense of stability and belonging, especially for individuals who may not have experienced that sense of security in the past.
