🥰Our babysitter 🥰

This is the Creekside Cuddle Club Cuties in full effect 💞

During cage changing days, Grandmaw S. Loves to babysit our community guinea pigs. They sit snuggled up in a bucket so she can hold all three at once. 💕

Pet therapy can sometimes be a solo experience for just one, while providing purpose in being helpful.

Thank you Grandma S. For being such a wonderful and loving sitter for our fur babies!

❓ FAQ: Are there opportunities to meet new friends in independent living?

Absolutely. Independent Living communities are designed to make connection easy and natural. From planned social events and group activities to casual coffee chats and game nights, there are countless ways to meet neighbors who share your interests.

With everyday interactions in welcoming shared spaces like dining rooms, lounges, and activity centers, friendships often form effortlessly. It is a lifestyle where feeling known, included, and connected is part of daily life.

🧙‍♀️🪄🧹 Creekside presents- A Wicked Evening 💚🩷🖤

Residents here absolutely love their Featured Movie Nights. So much so, once a month we will now have a themed movie night in our theatre room.

To end our month of March, we kicked it off with Wicked part 1 & 2 to close out our 5 weeks of Broadway! 🧙‍♀️

Everyone had such a fabulous time! The laughter, tears and shouts for Elphaba. So many walked away feeling "Changed For Good"
having a different perspective on the original Wizard Of Oz, now having a love for the lady in green.💚 Not everything is always as it seems.💚

We all wore matching tee-shirts, matching charm bracelets, and witch hats of course 😉

We served their favorite movie theater popcorn, and a flow of ice cold champagne from a smoking culdron bar of green 🍾 it was a night for the books!

Thank you to everyone who participated, joined in, and assisted in making this evening spooktacular!
, we are so grateful for one another!

Cheers, 🥂 until the next themed movie night! Project Hail Mary is a TOP request once available for purchase ✨️
