 As the Director of Homecare Operations for Comforts of Home – Care, Jen’s crucial role is to oversee the day-to-day operations of our company by supporting and leading the entire office team. She brings with her a diverse set of skills, and is responsible for company growth and expansion, including adding new services.

Jen started out as a caregiver in July 2015 and was brought into the office as a Staff Coordinator in September of that year. Exactly one year later, she was offered the position of Operations Manager, before being promoted to her current role in June 2022.

With a deep understanding of Comforts of Home – Care, Jen excels at developing policies and procedures which help with the day-to-day operations of the company. Her previous experience as a professional chef for 15 years taught her many invaluable skills, including working in a strong team environment, time management, leadership, and training.

Jen’s granny was her best friend growing up—she taught Jen how to forage for foods, which they would then bring to the kitchen and spend hours cooking, baking, and canning. Although she has since passed away from dementia, Jen carries on that love of being in the kitchen.

Along with a natural talent for being a nurturer, Jen enjoys being able to make a difference in people’s lives. She’s proudly born and raised in Winnipeg (and lived in Calgary for 8 years in her 20s while pursuing her culinary career). Jen completed the Professional Cooking Program at SAIT, is a Certified Red Seal Chef, and holds a certificate in Conflict Management Skills.

“I lead with my heart, always searching for a better way to help,” Kimberley says. She has a soft spot in her heart for seniors — her grandmother passed away in March 2017 at 97 years old, and Kimberley fondly talks about her as a loving, funny, and filter-free character.

Kimberley lived in various cities in Ontario before moving to Winnipeg in 1997. She has a BA in English/Theatre, took Leadership Training at Ryerson University, and did Training & Development at Red River College.

Shan’s role at Comforts of Home – Care is an Human Resources.   She hires all our amazing caregivers.   

Since joining us in January 2011, her background with our company has also included working in Human Resources and as an office manager — she’s a real team player, which balances beautifully with her independent streak!

Watching her own mother age and become more dependent on others has given Shan a soft spot in her heart for seniors and their families. Her sincere desire to help other people and her caring nature makes her an important part of our team.

Born and raised in southern Manitoba, Shan spent 2 years at Briercrest Bible College and moved to Winnipeg in 2002. Shan brings with her 12 years of experience in the Home Care industry and started working as a companion in the community with seniors, before moving on to administrative and HR duties.

Aundrea is a Staff Coordinator and Caregiver at Comforts of Home – Care, and she brings a lively energetic personality to our team! Born and raised here in Winnipeg, she is currently enrolled in the Robertson College for Community Support Worker (completion date May 2022).

After seeing how difficult it was for her mom and family to handle things when her father was diagnosed with cancer, she knew she wanted to be a home care provider… and provide the compassionate support so needed for other families going through challenging times.

Leo is a Staff Coordinator at Comforts of Home – Care, and responsible for scheduling caregivers with clients—to ensure we have the right caregiver matched up for each client’s needs.

Leo was born and raised in the Philippines. She has a strong connection to caring for seniors: When her mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, Leo was working abroad, so she travelled home consistently to take care of her mom and do everything to provide her with the support and compassionate care she needed.

Bringing to the team an educational background with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, and currently taking post-graduate studies in Human Resources, Learning and Development, Leo has a great combination of admin experience, hands-on knowledge, and practical education to support her in her role

Shelby is one of our Staff Coordinators — along with a few other members of our team, she is responsible for building calendars and schedules for our clients while placing the right caregivers with each client! 

 Shelby brings two years of experience as a caregiver with her to this role, so she understands the importance of matching the right caregivers with clients (and ensuring that both caregiver and client enjoy their time together and have a good experience). She’s adept at keeping calm and on track under pressure, is well-organized, and has also done a course on community support through Robertson College. 

 Growing up close with her grandmother, Shelby has a special place in her heart for the elderly. They would bake and do crafts together (that’s where Shelby gets her DIY nature!), and now that her grandmother has passed, Shelby makes all of the baking for her entire family at Christmas. It means a lot to her that she gets to pass these skills on to her kids and share that knowledge, skill, and love of baking to another generation.
