Welcome, and thank you for visiting.

I understand what an incredibly difficult decision it is to place your loved one in care. I’ve been where you are—I've walked the path of caregiving, both emotionally and practically. Most recently, I cared for my mom, who had vascular dementia. I understand the emotional challenges that come with caregiving and the heavy burden it can place on your heart.

My caregiving journey started at a young age. I began helping my parents with their needs while still in high school—paying bills, filling prescriptions, and taking on responsibilities that many my age weren’t even thinking about. By the time I was in my late 20s, I was a full-time caregiver for my mom, after my dad passed away from cancer. During those years, I often felt isolated, trying to navigate the complexities of care on my own.

I remember touring facilities and hearing the same comment over and over: "You’re so young to be here. Are you part of any support group?" When I asked if they had anyone in the group who could truly relate to my experiences, they always said no.

My mom passed away a few years ago, and that’s when I realized how important it is to offer support to others who are facing the same challenges. It became clear to me that no one should ever have to feel alone on this journey. That’s why I founded Laing Care Associates—to offer empathetic, hands-on support to those who are caring for a loved one.

Because I started my caregiving journey at a young age, I’m uniquely suited to understand everything you’re going through. I want to be your advocate, offer resources, and be a companion to you throughout your caregiving experience. As more and more people find themselves in the role of caregiver, the need for someone who truly understands grows, and I’m here to help make that journey a little less lonely and much more manageable.
