What client would ever say April showers bring May flowers when our Angel of the Month Gina Nelvy is on the job? In fact, we’d go so far as to say that she makes it feel like May is in bloom all year round! Gina first worked for Visiting Angels in 2012 and returned to our agency in 2023 after a hiatus. During her time, she’s warmed the hearts of 13 different clients with undeniable charisma and charm that’s all her own. While any care professional would admit that their job is never easy, Gina believes success starts and ends with making sure the client is comfortable.

Spring is upon us, and like our March Angel of the Month Megan Santosus, never seems to disappoint. Every spring, flowers start to bloom, the weather gets a little warmer, the days get a little longer, and every shift, Megan shows up to make our clients’ lives better. Since joining our outstanding caregiving team here at Visiting Angels Newton/Canton a little over a year ago, Megan quickly made the career transition from publishing to award-winning care professional.

Congratulations to Ines Goncalves, our Angel of the Month for February 2025! Ines has been with our care professional team for a year now.

With the new year comes a new Angel of the Month. We are thrilled to name Olasumbo Oyigbo our first Angel of the Month for 2025! Lovingly called “Sumba” for short, she joined the Visiting Angels Newton/Canton team in May 2023 and has cared for 11 different clients with an energy and enthusiasm all her own. For Sumba, it all comes back to caring for clients exactly how she’d care for her own family, which is something she learned to do from a very early age as the oldest of her brothers and sisters.
