Our process

Our process

The first step in the process is a complimentary, initial in-home care assessment with a Senior Helpers consultant.  This assessment can help you understand the true needs of your loved one, and your options. Together we can discuss their needs, our senior care services and determine what’s best for your entire family.

We will cover:

  • Your family's specific goals
  • Your loved one's daily plan design and schedule
  • Pricing and payment methods
  •  Implementation process
  • Ongoing communication and follow-up plan

Shelbee Knopf

Shelbee Knopf

Owner

Shelbee is the proud owner of Senior Helpers of Huntsville, where her lifelong passion for helping others comes to life through compassionate, in-home care for older adults. A first-generation college graduate and now a small business owner, Shelbee is deeply committed to giving back to the Huntsville community — a place she admires for its rich history, shaped by the Redstone Arsenal and Marshall Space Center, and even more so for the people who lived it.

For Shelbee, starting Senior Helpers is more than a business — it’s a mission rooted in empathy, dignity, and connection. She is especially driven by the belief that even the smallest acts — a warm meal, a friendly conversation, or a helping hand — can profoundly impact someone’s quality of life. Her goal is to help older adults stay safe, comfortable, and independent in the homes they love, while also feeling connected to the vibrant Huntsville community.

Shelbee is passionate about building a team of kind, dedicated professionals who treat every client like family. Outside of work, she enjoys crocheting, hiking local nature trails with her loyal dog Noche, and attending community events and concerts. She also actively supports causes that ensure no one falls through the cracks when it comes to care, working to connect individuals and families with vital local resources and charities.

For Shelbee, every day is an opportunity to serve, support, and bring joy to the lives of those who’ve given so much — and to make sure they are seen, valued, and truly cared for.

Field Technical Specialist, CNA

As a Field Technical Specialist at Senior Helpers, I bring over 13 years of CNA experience to my role. I train new caregivers, coordinate client and caregiver schedules, and ensure client satisfaction through regular quality service check-ins. What excites me most about this work is seeing the difference we make in people’s lives and doing it with a spirit of excellence.

Originally from South Bend, Indiana, and I was raised in a proud Air Force family. I’m a mother of three, grandmother of ten, and active in my church and community — including serving as an evangelist and assistant Cubmaster for my grandsons’ Scout pack. At home, I enjoy time with my dog Bella, bird Twitty, and spending time with my family. We’re often outdoors hiking, fishing, or camping. And when we’re not in nature, we’re indoors battling it out over board games — and yes, Grandma plays to win!

One of my favorite quotes is by Mary Kay Ash:

"Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve."

That mindset inspires me every day — in caregiving, in service, and in life.


I want to take this opportunity to express our thanks for the superb work Diane did for Dad while he was in the hospital. She was punctual, personable, and dedicated. She helped my Dad immensely during a difficult time for him. Her calm manner and brilliant smile worked magic. My Dad’s attitude changed completely for the better after her first visit. Thank you so much for giving us Diane. She really is a remarkable person and very caring.
