Companion Visits for Seniors

Social visits, outings,
and a helping hand.
Edmonton, AB

Hello! Im Laura Klotz.
I offer compassionate companionship to seniors in the Edmonton, Alberta area. Since 2010 I have been dedicated to enriching the lives of seniors through meaningful social visits.

Each visit is a time to connect in ways that offer individualized comfort and support. Our time together could be enjoying a relaxed conversation over a cup of tea, taking a leisurely stroll in the park, looking through treasured photo albums, reading together, or engaging in a favorite hobby. Additionally I can assist with light household upkeep, and friendly accompaniment to appointments or outings. I am pleased to support the ageing-in-place concept, contributing to your continued independence and comfort of home.

Our scheduled visits are a minimum of two hours, as often as you'd like. I am familiar with assisting those who use walkers or wheelchairs. My hourly rate is $40. Please scroll down to read my testimonials.

A bit about me: I cherish my family, and the beauty of the nature of things, and I love regenerative gardening and natural food.

Please contact me to discuss how I can be of service to you or your loved one.
I look forward to meeting you!

(Note: My role focuses on companionship, and does not involve medical services.)

Testimonials
  • Shelly H.
    Client's Daughter
    Laura has been my eyes and ears and has been a voice for my mom for going on three years. My mom is living with dementia and her ability to communicate, mobilize and manage any personal care continues to decline. This is where Laura comes in, she is compassionate and patient, with a soft, gentle and caring manner, always engaging my mom in a variety of activities. With Laura my mom enjoys fresh air strolls, reading, music, art, cards, increased exercise participation, meal support and overall great companionship. Laura shares with me how my mom is doing which supports the care decisions I need to make for my mom from afar. Staff from the care facility and mom's friends often share with me how lucky I am to have found Laura, always mentioning how engaged Laura is with mom and having nothing but positives to share with me. Knowing Laura is with my mom and mom is not alone warms my heart and provides great comfort. Laura is my mom's living angel.

    Laura has provided exceptional compassionate care to my Dad, and I couldn’t ask for better peace of mind. They cook lunch together, garden together, and sometimes just sit under the apple tree in the backyard talking. Laura has truly made a positive difference to our family.

    Laura provided companion care for my Uncle who was struggling with Alzheimer’s in the latter years of his life. The difficulties of this disease made it necessary to have someone present for reassurance and comfort. Laura provided this and much more. Her compassion, gentleness and understanding made my Uncle at ease right at the onset. It was heart warming to see their relationship grow and he developed an innate trust and comfort with Laura. Her intuitiveness and response to his varying emotional needs was truly remarkable. Laura provided us some time and space to re-energize so we too could be at our best to support our Uncle.
    I would highly recommend Laura as a companion to anyone looking for a kind, loving and genuine person to help care for and support their loved one.

  • Louise S.
    Client's Daughter
    When we were looking for someone to go to Dad, our friend told us about Laura.
    Dad was just diagnosed with early dementia and needed a kind person to check in on him. Laura always made him feel seen and confident in his abilities to do tasks that were getting increasingly difficult.
    Laura followed him into a care home and has been his consistent 'friend' as he progresses further into dementia. Laura continues to see past the dementia and to the person who is always there. Dad loves Laura, like he does family. The connection Laura has made with Dad has become invaluable and far exceeds what our hopes were when we first hired Laura.
