What Our Clients Are Saying
As one of Caregivercare’s participants, I learned how crucially important it is to keep one's brain continuously engaged and one's body well exercised and in harmony with its surroundings. Caregivercare’s dedicated and gifted teachers introduced me to various ways to practice and achieve these goals, resulting in a healthier me.

Since I started following your suggestion to have a walk with dad every day, he got back to talking more! I’m amazed! Our one-on-one monthly coaching sessions have been extremely helpful to become specific in taking care of dad as well as making the time and the commitment to take of myself.

As the Fall programs start up again, I want to take this opportunity to thank CareGiverCare, you, and Father Madigan for these programs. My husband and I first learned of the programs from the St. Thomas More bulletin, and have been participants and fans ever since. There are a wide variety of classes, and our favorites are the Chair yoga, and the Italian movie and discussion. We started participating while these were held at the Parish House, and enjoyed them very much.

I’m in Antonella’s Italian class and I would like to thank Caregivers, you and Antonella for
the wonderful lessons.
I spoke a little Italian when I was a child in Argentina (I’m 82 now) so it was a long time ago. But, o miracolo, it’s all coming back !
Very happy to say I had a telephone conversation yesterday with an Italian friend In Italian!!!
