Meet our Leader, Andy McMurdo

---

Andy graduated from Western University (UWO) and took a full-time position at Coca Cola. She enjoyed corporate sales and the relationships she formed with her clients. After five years she left the corporate world to nurture and guide her 3 young kids. Now that Andy's kids are older and after some careful deliberation, acknowledging her aptitude with people, she launched Her Helping Hand.

Andy is a caregiver by nature. She has always enjoyed the company of seniors. As a young adult Andy was always keen to visit her grandma out of town and enjoyed hearing stories of her childhood in the early 1900’s. When her Nanny passed away she was happy to move in with her Pops to help him around the house, prepare meals, play gin rummy and keep him company. She is kind, caring and enthusiastic.

Andy enjoys the outdoors, exercise, and an active social life. She appreciates the importance of all these in every stage of our lives. She has been a volunteer fitness instructor for seniors with Meals on Wheels.

In this new chapter of her life, Andy hopes she can help you with the care for your parents…and some fun stuff too! She lives in Waterloo with her husband, three children, dog and two cats.
