Gentle, experienced care for life's most tender seasons.
I'm Vanessa Evans, a Certified Nursing Assistant with 11 years devoted to long-term and end-of-life hospice care. I help families in the Sierra foothills keep their loved ones comfortable, dignified, and at home — and I help you breathe again, too.

Care that surrounds the whole family
Dementia & Alzheimer's Care
Years of long-term care experience with Alzheimer's and dementia — calm routines, gentle redirection, and care that meets your loved one wherever this day finds them.
Comfort & Personal Care
Bathing, grooming, repositioning, feeding assistance, and the small, constant acts of tenderness that keep your loved one comfortable and dignified.
Home & Pet Care
Light housekeeping, home-cooked meals, grocery runs — and loving care for the pets who are family too, from daily walks to vet visits.
Respite for Family Caregivers
Full-time caregiving is a marathon. I step in so you can sleep, work, or simply be a daughter, son, or spouse again for a few hours.
Overnight & Vigil Support
A calm, experienced presence through the night and during the final days — so no one faces the hardest hours alone, and family can rest.
Hospice Team Coordination
When hospice begins, I work alongside the agency's nurses, social workers, and chaplains — observing, reporting changes, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks.
Three gentle steps
Reach out
Call or send a message. We'll talk about your loved one, your family, and what kind of support would help most.
Meet at home
A free, no-pressure home visit to meet your family, understand the care environment, and build a plan together.
Care begins
From a few hours a week to overnight vigils, care is shaped around your family — and adjusts as needs change.
From families I've walked beside
"Vanessa is a bright light and a wonderful caregiver."
Her beautiful cheerful smile and gentle hug greeted my sister every day. Her warm heart and genuine compassionate care along with her expertise and understanding of dementia brought my sister great comfort, companionship and many joyful days.
Vanessa was a blessing and my sister was content, which gave me and my husband a chance to breathe as we knew she was well cared for by Vanessa. We were able to enjoy the life we had put on hold, also time to enjoy my sister instead of being too busy as her caregiver.
To anyone who needs a truly wonderful caregiver who is genuine, sincerely kind and ensures a quality of life for your loved one — I recommend Vanessa.
You don't have to do this alone.
