the Staff at Dementia Day Center The Tulip Place

Hi, I am Laila and I am a Dementia Certified Practitioner. I have been helping families deal with dementia for over 25 years now. Whether it is helping care partners with questions, organizing activities and day programs for people living with dementia or educating the community, my passion is helping families dealing with dementia cope better and have a better quality of life. Dementia Day Center The Tulip Place is located in Milton but anybody in the neighboring counties can come join our program!

My favorite job was in Amsterdam, 27 years ago, where my professor at the University of Amsterdam, opened the first ever day center and program in the world for people living with dementia. The impact the program has on the family and person living with dementia was clear from the start and proved its positive impact from the start.

After moving to Georgia from the Netherlands for my husband's work I realized there is no similar program here for people living at home, in independent or assisted living communities to come to and experience a great day. At the same time, having your loved one join this program,  it gives care partners a break in caregiving to recharge and also have a great day. Aging in place is what many of us want and this program can help with that.

What makes our day program different is the way people experience a day at The Tulip Place. Our day is filled with fun, laughter and friendship. It combats loneliness, gives purpose and is a social meeting place to do activities with peers, just sit and chat and have lunch together, all based on the interest and personalities of the group. It gives people independence and autonomy over their day. They decide what and how we do activities and what makes it a good day for them, what engages and is fun to do. 

If you want or need a day for yourself or think your loved one should have a day with friends and laughter or just want to learn more about how I can help support you, feel free to reach out.
