MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO

Hey, I'm Laura!

I'm Laura Wilkerson, a board-certified family nurse practitioner with over 25 years in the medical field—and a personal passion for supporting caregivers like you.

My journey in dementia care started in the emergency department, where I saw the struggles faced by those caring for loved ones with cognitive impairments. This fuelled my drive to make a difference.

Over the years, I’ve worked in family practice, launched a medical house calls service, and even owned assisted living facilities with memory care units—all to better understand and address the unique challenges caregivers face.

My approach is holistic: I believe in treating the whole person, not just the medical condition, and that means recognizing the unique story of each individual with dementia.

I created the Dementia Caregivers Academy because I saw a gap in support, education, and community for caregivers.

Here, you won’t just find expert advice—you’ll find a compassionate community, a wealth of resources, and a space where you feel understood and empowered.

My mission is to walk alongside you, helping you navigate this path with confidence and compassion. Let's make this journey a little less overwhelming—together.
