## Story

AUGUSTA, GA. (PRWEB) July 31, 2023 - Caring Transitions continues expanding its compassionate reach nationwide with its latest location. Caring Transitions of Augusta South is owned and operated by Caren Villanueva. This new location that opened in early July is the second in Augusta.

Caring Transitions is designed to minimize stress by utilizing specially trained professionals to oversee every detail of a senior’s transition with compassion, including decluttering, organizing, packing, move management, unpacking, resettling, and cleanouts. The company also manages both in-home and online estate sales. The online estate sales are hosted on CTBIDS, the brand’s widely popular auction platform, which can support its clients in liquidating unique and everyday treasures that many cherish.

Having discovered the brand through shopping on CTBIDS, Villanueva recognized the unique and comprehensive services offered by Caring Transitions. Before landing in eastern Georgia, her adventurous spirit led her to spend a decade working on sailboats and super yachts, traveling the South Pacific. After meeting her husband, an active military service member, in Hawaii, she began moving around the country with him.

“I understand the stress and anxiety that comes with packing up your belongings and moving,” says Villanueva. “By providing transparent and dignified services, my team and I aim to eliminate fear and anxiety associated with major life transitions.”

Villanueva understands the difficulties that come with the aging journey. Witnessing her sister face challenges in caring for their late mother, who battled Alzheimer’s, inspired Villanueva to make a difference in the lives of seniors and their families. In addition to seniors, she also looks forward to helping military spouses by providing them with a place of employment.

Caring Transitions of August South serves beyond southern Augusta, including Girard, Louisville, Sardis, Avera, Blythe, Boneville, Dearing, Gibson, Gracewood, Harlem, Hephzibah, Keysville, Matthews, Stapleton, Waynesboro, and Wrens. Caring Transitions currently has more than 280 franchise locations serving families across the country.

“Caring Transitions is delighted to welcome Caren to our franchise family,” says Ray Fabik, President of Caring Transitions. “Her personal experiences, passion for helping others, and dedication to providing high-quality services make her an excellent fit. We are confident that under Caren’s leadership, Caring Transitions of Augusta South will become an invaluable resource for seniors and their families in the area.”
