Roberta Velichko
President And Co-Founder Of Always An Angel® Homecare
Roberta Velichko is the Co-Founder and President of Always an Angel® Homecare. Roberta has an extensive background in Corporate America in the fields of managerial customer service and administrative support. She worked for such companies as The Nestle Company, Chesebrough-Ponds, Inc. (now Unilever), Mobil Oil, and was also Executive Assistant to Wall Street Financier Carl C. Icahn whom at the time was Owner and Chairman of TWA Airlines.
After giving birth to her second child, Roberta was a stay-at-home mom for 17 years raising her four children. During this time, she volunteered with her local PTA creating and implementing a community-wide reading initiative called Putnam Valley Reads. Roberta established and led a Moms in Prayer group for Putnam Valley schools for over 10 years and established and ran a monthly Christian group called Women at the Well. She also volunteered at her church Congregation of the Messiah in Tuckahoe, NY where she ran Sunday School classes and remains an active member of the Parish Council.
Ten years ago, with the kids a little older and looking to supplement her husband’s income, Roberta returned to the workforce on a part-time basis in the senior care field. It is here she discovered her heart for seniors and with much prompting from her husband, they launched Always an Angel Homecare in September 2012.
Roberta feels it is an honor and privilege to serve seniors and attempts to understand and meet all their needs. She makes sure no client is alone for their birthday often celebrating with the caregiver(s) as well. For those clients at end-of-life stages, Roberta views it is an opportunity to help them on their journey home with the sentiment that no one should die alone and/or not know the hope of heaven.
On a personal aside, Steve and Roberta invited her mom to move in with them in August 2018. This has afforded them to see and understand firsthand more than ever the need and value of help in the home for a senior from carrying a large pot, opening a jar of jam, to a fun game of Scrabble Sunday evenings. Roberta is a happy grandmother of three beautiful grandchildren. Roberta continues to lead a weekly Bible Study in her home on Wednesday evenings in its 11th year and co-hosts a quarterly women’s Christian group called Women of Worth at her church.

Praise From Our Clients
“always put the needs of their clients first“
Always An Angel® works hard to always put the needs of their clients first!
“it was a perfect experience“
I was really impressed with the office follow up and help, and certainly with the aide that worked with me. This was my first experience needing any help, but a broken arm gave me little choice. It was a perfect experience.
“indispensable part of the family“
It was hard to convince my parent to allow a caregiver to come into their home but the caregivers from Always An Angel® soon became an indispensable part of the family.
