Become the Catalyst of Positive Change
Are you wanting something different in your life or work? A quiet mind that is not overthinking? More self-esteem/self-confidence? More balance in your life? Professional coaching focuses on setting goals, creating outcomes, and managing personal change. Other service professions, like consulting and psychotherapy, are based on the wisdom and expertise of the professional. In coaching you—the client—are the expert. Brian’s role as your coach is to ask powerful questions, act as a sounding board, listen fully and actively, challenge your blind spots, and foster shifts in thinking that reveal fresh perspectives.
What’s In Your Products?
Did you know that parabens (methyl, butyl, ethyl, propyl), found in many personal care products, can disrupt the endocrine system affecting hormones in the body? This can harm fertility and reproductive organs, affecting birth outcomes, and increasing the risk of cancer. These chemicals are even found in baby products. 60% of what we put on our skin gets absorbed into our bodies. Skincare ingredients are not regulated, and almost any ingredient can be incorporated into a formula. The synthetic fragrances alone can be created with up to 3000 different chemicals. Essential oils, on the other hand, are beneficial to the body and can boost mood, improve sleep, reduce inflammation, reduce stress, along with many other benefits.
Phones for Hearing Impaired
There is nothing sweeter than the sound of a loved one’s voice even if it is only on the telephone. Unfortunately for someone with hearing loss, using the telephone can be a frustrating experience. Suffering from hearing loss not only affects your hearing in live conversations, it makes using the telephone a real challenge. Because of today’s inclusive technology, phones and other useful hearing aid accessories for communication for people hard of hearing are now available. Hearing aid phones are a great gift that will help your loved one live life normally despite the hearing loss.

Friendly Caller Program
Our friendly caller program is free and run by staff, volunteers and Social work practicum students that are passionate about working with Seniors. We aim to decrease social isolation in the Saskatoon senior population by providing social phone calls to those who would benefit from social interaction. If you or someone you know could benefit from this program please contact us today.
Housekeeping Services
Saskatoon Services for Seniors offers housekeeping services for all seniors in Saskatoon. Our staff is screened and fully insured. We are here to assist with many household cleaning services such as kitchens, bathrooms, laundry, dusting and wall washing. We only provide the services that you require and as such only have a one hour minimum for each appointment. We can provide regular weekly service, bi-weekly services or just when you need us. The fee involved is based on the seniors income and if cost is a barrier, though our donors we can usually overcome this barrier to be able to get seniors the help they need.

About Us:
Saskatoon Services for Seniors was started in 1988 with goal of off helping seniors and keep them independent and in their homes as long as they want. We started with offering our Housekeeping service and later developed yard work crews to help seniors with maintaining the outside of their properties. Over the years we have added many services to assist seniors including snow shoveling, handyman services and Grocery Delivery just to name a few. Today we offer many services to help seniors in Saskatoon remain safely in their homes and independent.
