About Me......
Colleen E. Cunningham brings integrity, energy, and heartfelt service to everything she does—especially in caregiving. With a deep commitment to supporting individuals and families through life’s transitions, Colleen offers compassionate, personalized care that makes people feel safe, seen, and genuinely valued.
Born in Lima, Peru and raised in Seattle, Colleen graduated from Lincoln High School in 1981 before studying Jazz Vocals at the renowned Cornish Institute of Allied Arts. Her early career as a professional vocalist took her across the country, where she led bands and performed for diverse audiences. Eventually, her journey brought her to Montana, where she settled for 27 years to raise her son and explore new ways of serving her community.
Over the years, Colleen has worn many hats—including restaurant manager, dog groomer, group home caregiver for individuals with developmental disabilities, and owner of a successful organizational consulting business. Her passion for care work led her to earn her Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) certification, launching Cunningham CNA Services, where she has provided long-term and in-home support with a warm, individualized approach.
Whether helping someone navigate daily living or offering meaningful companionship, Colleen’s focus is always on building trust and meeting the unique emotional and physical needs of each person she supports. Her experience across industries has shaped her into a highly adaptable, dependable, and intuitive caregiver who brings a “Can Do” spirit into every setting.
Now back in her beloved Pacific Northwest, Colleen continues to dedicate herself to helping others live with dignity, joy, and independence. Her mission is simple: to be a steady presence and a source of comfort for those who need it most.
At Colleen's Caregiver Services, I believe in providing more than care—I offer connection.
With years of experience as a licensed Home Care Aide and a background as a Certified Nursing Assistant, I specialize in personalized, one-on-one support that respects your unique needs and values your dignity.
Whether you're seeking assistance with daily activities, companionship, or specialized care,
I'm here to ensure you or your loved one feels heard, safe, and truly cared for.
Trust. Kindness. Compassion.
These aren't just words. They're the heart of everything I do.

Her commitment to caregiving goes far beyond checking boxes—she understands that true support means honoring the whole person. Colleen listens, observes, and adapts, ensuring her services reflect the evolving needs, preferences, and values of each client. She takes time to learn about their routines, hobbies, and concerns, building a sense of trust and stability over time.

Let's make life easier together
Family-Centered Emotional Support & Companionship
Sometimes what matters most isn’t medical care—it’s connection. Colleen’s caring, compassionate nature makes her an ideal companion for those who are isolated or need emotional support. From sharing stories to helping with errands and appointments, she goes beyond the basics to bring joy and ease into everyday life.
Whether you need part-time respite care or a steady, uplifting presence, Colleen is here to help.
Inclusive Experiences That Nourish the Soul
Colleen offers more than just caregiving—she creates meaningful experiences that uplift the spirit and engage the heart. Her services include personalized activities tailored to each individual’s interests and needs, from sensory-based stimulation for those with dementia to holistic lifestyle support that encourages emotional and mental well-being. She believes in the healing power of joy, creativity, and genuine connection, and she brings that belief to life in everything she does.
With Colleen, care is never one-size-fits-all. She takes time to understand each person’s background, preferences, and personality to craft moments that bring comfort, dignity, and delight. That might mean playing favorite songs, doing light gardening, baking together, coordinating local outings, or simply sitting down for a meaningful conversation. Her thoughtful presence makes every interaction feel intentional and nurturing.
Colleen is also deeply committed to inclusivity. She proudly offers affirming care to LGBTQ+ seniors and individuals from all walks of life, ensuring that everyone feels respected, accepted, and celebrated. No matter the setting, her goal is to help people feel seen, valued, and at home—emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
Whether you’re seeking enriching companionship, creative engagement, or a trusted guide for your loved one’s well-being, Colleen is here to provide support with heart, grace, and kindness.
