Does this surprise you?

You need a break to avoid burning out.

Respite is essential in preventing burnout and keeping caregivers healthy yet 1 out of 3 caregivers who want relief, do not get it.

Trustworthy Support with Daily Money Management Tasks

As a certified public accountant, Chris Baker sets higher standards for himself and his team. They go beyond routine bookkeeping to compassionately and respectfully assess how individuals manage their daily financial activities. As a son, he recognizes the emotions surrounding aging in place and end of life challenges, as well as the profound desire to preserve independence, dignity, and preserving family legacy.

Most people, especially those new to the role of financial caregiver, are unfamiliar with the idea of “daily money management.” They are usually surprised to learn that protecting a senior loved one’s economic security doesn’t have to be an overwhelming or all-consuming task. Sure, every family situation is different but Baker DMM still begins each client relationship with a genuine desire to help relieve daily financial management burdens while maintaining independence and dignity.

Assuming responsibility for a loved one’s bookkeeping, reconciling credit card statements, and keeping up with bill payments can be daunting. Uncertainties and concerns seem endless. So, no matter how far-fetched a question might seem, you need answers. Baker DMM has easily understood useful, and respectful information. We’re available via email, text, or phone and will respond to all communications within one business day.

Let’s talk about how Baker DMM can assist you, or an aging loved one, do things like pay bills on time and monitor accounts for potential fraud or identity theft.

Who We Help:

Seniors, Their Family Members, and Financial Caregivers

Natural aging brings diminished physical and/or mental capacity as well as increased possibilities of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. As baby boomers cross into retirement, these unwanted consequences of aging challenge them, and often their adult children, to adjust all kinds of activities, including daily money management tasks. Family members often find themselves unexpectedly thrown into the caregiver role, charged with protecting a senior loved one from financial fraud and safeguarding family assets.  Baker DMM was purposely built to bring seniors and their families financial peace of mind by supporting them on this journey.

People in all types of economic, social, and personal situations trust their daily money management tasks to Baker DMM including:
