Marc Jesmer – Lean on Us- A Seniors Concierge Service

www.leanonusfredericton.ca

Our inspiration sounded something like this: “Wouldn’t it be great if we had some help with this?” This thought occurred to us as we both lived through the hectic conditions that accompany the responsibility of an aging family member. Add to this, the frustration that we encountered due to living in different provinces than our parents. We realized we were on to something when we said “We need someone to help”. We understand how you feel, because we have been in your shoes.

Marc has been in the service industry for over 35 years, working in restaurants and hotels with one single goal, to make sure everyone was happy and satisfied. Susan has been a high school teacher for 31 years. She has taught many subjects including Home Economics, Family Living, Personal Development and Psychology.

We are a husband and wife team Marc Jesmer and Susan MacLeod who started Lean On Us – A Seniors Concierge Service at the ages of 52 and 56 respectively. We started Lean On Us as we both lived through the hectic conditions that accompany the responsibility of an aging family member. Add to this the frustration that we encountered due to living in different provinces than our parents. We realized we were onto something when we said “We need someone to help.” Our business came from a pure desire for the little time that you do have to be spent enjoying the visits rather than frittered away shopping , fixing things or shuttling around to appointments.

At Lean On Us – A Seniors Concierge Service, we are providing help and peace of mind for seniors and their families in Fredericton and surrounding areas. Our services provide help to those families who may be located in a different city or busy with the demands of a hectic lifestyle. If you, or a family member, needs a bit of assistance with the organization and completion of day to day tasks, Lean On Us.
