Nanny,I bet you were a great& fun teacher.❤
Nanny I really do appreciate this video. Do you think maybe Cindy could put links to help us with finding all these items. I know it would be helpful to many, you are so blessed with family to help. Love you so much, you are not only an inspiration but a truly compassionate person ❤️
I got the seat riser and the chair from Amazon.
Baie baie dankie love and blessings
Thank you for all these great ideas Nanny!😊
Things like you talked about have certainly come a long way, thank God. Thanks so much for all the info. My knees are like yours, bone on bone. Some days it’s ok. Some days, sitting in a chair? Getting up and feels like knees locked. Love, hugs, prayers to you, Nanny and to your sweetie, Moosie. ♥️🌹🙏
Love hearing your tips!
I love that tool to get out of the car. Thanks. Going over to Amazon. I fell last year and couldn't walk well for months with a walker. Medicare supplied me with a free transport wheel chair prescribed by the hospital. It is lightweight. Nothing fancy but sure helped my daughter get me to appointments. Yes, we need gadgets and are lucky to have them available. Love these video ideas. So helpful. You're a blessing, Nanny. God bless you and Moose. 💙
Great ideas for all of us aging boomers. I can still do the one leg stand to put on me britches….😂 but I’m sure that will come to an end soon enough. Thanks for the tips!
Thanks young lady for all the good tips. 🇨🇦🇺🇸
Nanny you are just a Doll sharing all of these beautiful tips! I'm a firm believer making life easy and all things do-able as possible. I had to laugh about getting stuck on the potty 😂I got stuck on one while at a restaurant...but thank God I too got that last umph and was able to stand up w/out help😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thanks Nanny, such a very helpful video, and I’m laughing because I can see most of us trying to balance while putting on trousers and knickers 🤣🤣. Yes, I have to lean on something too!!! Your tips are brilliant, I love your videos and look forward to every one. Bye for now, with love Sandra x❤
You are so welcome,Sandra❤️
✅Super agers! I’m practicing sitting and standing throughout the day. It’s painful for me, but I know the importance to stay mobile as much as possible. I try to walk one mile daily. I’ve noticed youtube has some videos for physical therapy too. Nanny, thanks for being our inspiration!❤
I’ve started chair yoga. It’s safe and I can tell I’m getting more strength. Amazing. Give it a try.
Priceless information. Perfect!
Looking Fab as usual Nanny.
Love to yourself and Moose.
Great Tips.
Love and God Bless.

Thanks so much Nanny, all wonderful suggestions. I am definitely interested in more videos like this, very helpful!
Love all of your videos🥰. You are so insightful, and I love all of your tips, be they makeup, food, gardening, or life tips🤗.
Nanny, I enjoyed this. I love your cottage, patio and garden. Great tips!
So informative. We are reaching the age where we could use this information. Thank you so much for all your videos. I learn so much from you. Prayers for good health for you and Moosie. ❤❤❤❤
Another wonderful video Nanny ❣️ TY, for taking the time to show us/teach us so many helpful/wonderful things that we can use in our day to day life. Been such a blessing. 🥂 Best to Moose & Family
Thank you so much Nanny for sharing these things with us. I want to thank you for your other video's too. I have been feeling a little down myself and hearing you talk about the challenges you are going through helps me. So much of what you say hits really close to home and it is like having you over for a cup of coffee or tea and sharing our experiences and feelings. Thank you again about talking about everything and everything, you are very much appreciated and loved. Give Moose my best.
You’re very welcome, my friend…❤️
I watched this twice. Great information and I ordered the glare glasses. We needed them. Thank you so much for all the information! Much love to you and Moosey ❤
Thank your for sharing these tips to assist with aging. And thank you for mentioning added confidence when using these tools. That is so important. I really appreciate your gracious and positive attitude.
You are so well organised, Nanny, with all these helpful aids. Thanks for sharing, and all the best! Jo (NZ). ❤❤❤
Thanks so much for all the tips for us elderly!!! 💕
Thank you Nanny for sharing!
So good to see you again. You touched on a lot of good ideas as far as being safe while doing things. And, I want to thank you for that. Take care and see you soon! ❤
Good morning Nanny. Thank you for all the tips you gave us today. With my bad knees some day I will have to got a walker like that. With the pain I have afraid to go out an walk big distances and I tired myself quite a lot. I also have to think about putting some rods in the bathroom, especially in the bathtub for the shower. I don’t have anything to hold on to. Let’s see. Love you Nanny. God bless you all.
Glad you told us the shower has a chair. I was going to tell you it was the only way my husband could be safe showering. I always was close by during shower time! You look pretty. Hug
Hi Nanny! Thank you so much for this information Nanny! I love it when you tell us things that can help us in our "golden" years...we gave some gifts to our kids for Christmas that you recommended in a previous video for safety and they are loved them. This is so helpful and, I appreciate you giving us this important information!😊❤
This is so helpful to us; my husband & I are in our 70’s. Love you Nanny ❤
Great Video Thanks Nanny You Are The Best ❤️❤️❤️
Once again, just the right video for where I (we) am (are),Hearing and seeing all with you is just perfect. I was hoping you would mention the glasses for night time driving. Thank you and best wishes to you and Moose. God bless you all!
Sage advice well worth a reminder Nanny - stay fabulous - Love Jas xx
Great tips there going to be well used. Thank you have a wonderful valentines day
Wow, thanks for the useful information. I know you’ve been told ; must reiterate, I love watching your videos. ❤
You are amazing nanny. God bless you and moosey
I enjoyed this video and all of the things you recommend from your own experience. I'm 65 and in excellent health but my husband is 75 and he has a lot of problems with walking and balance. I bought one of those car assist tools but It is too large for the hooks on my car. It works on my van but we really don't need to use it on the van. Last year I added a lot of bars to our shower as well as a hand-held shower and a large seat. I have rechargeable battery motion sensor light strips in our hallway and stairway to help us see, it's like a little airport runway. I have also installed grab bars at the doorway to our home because we have a small 4 inch step there as well.
You’re doing great,Allison.❤️❤️
Good idea getting the shower bars great pillow .Oh Nanny that bed is great 👍 and they are expensive but sometimes we have to bite the bullet.Great ideas I’ve seen the car tool
I'm 63 and had hubby put in a rail next to our shower in our tiny bathroom and one at the top of the basement stairs that helps me when I'm carrying things up. I can hoist whatever I'm carrying up onto the kitchen floor and then use the rail to balance myself to get up the rest of the way. I have a rollator due to my bad knees (left one getting replaced in June!) and I love having the seat to rest. I also have a lightweight wheelchair which hubby used before and after I had bariatric surgery. I have a purse that I can sling around my neck to be a crossbody. I am so hoping that I won't need any of these after I have both knees replaced. Europe awaits me in my retirement! One more thing...I stay in the handicapped room at the hotel so I can get off the toilet! I have a chair in my shower and the handicap rooms often have either a chair or a flip down seat.
You’re doing everything right, Auntie🩷
Thank you for these tips they are so important. ❤️
Looks like a beautiful day in So Cal, thank you Nanny for all the great tips, especially the portable risers!😊😊
Love all your helpful tips- we need them all- you do such a great job informing us of all these helpful goodies! THANK YOU ❤ and please keep them coming👍👏👏🥰🥰😎😎
oh Nanny forgot to ask about your toilet..... Mine is elongated also it's 23 in extra high. I'm extremely heavy with both knees bone on bone also..... Carry on for visiting , or travel yeds Ma'am 😜.......
My sister passed away after having reoccurring complication from Polio, at age 5 . Till 1994 a quid
a real intellectual college grad. ...... As a family we learned many shortcuts, safety modified ways of getting it done for such an strong , non stop energy Lady....
Love your energy, state of mind, " gonna live it up till I die " attitude. I suffer keeping the urge to give up outings due to pain. I get so much from you 🙏🙏🌹💖
Stay positive, my friend❤️
I asked Alexa to play ‘My adobe hacienda’, by Eddie Howard, as recommended by a Nanny fan. I loved it, it was lovely and old fashioned and very apt.
Thank you Nanny 😊
Great tips you shared and another wonderful video! I love you Nanny! xoxo Debbie
"My Adobe Hacienda" by Eddy Howard reminds me of your cottage
Alexa will play it 🙂
Thank you so much for these helpful tips. I moved my mother into our home with early onset dementia and mobility issues and these things are very helpful tips. 🙏
So wonderful to see you ALWAYS! Be well and don’t forget to take care of yourself ❤❤❤
❤ thank you nanny for sharing all of your tips with us and I want you to know I just love your little cabin I think it is so pretty and that will that is on the wall is beautiful could you tell us what that's made out of or whatever and every day that I get to watch you it makes me happy
It’s just a 30 year old cotton puffy quilt…I loved the colors…not a vintage one, though, Joyce❤️
@@crushingtheir80snannyandmoose you have good taste and I do love it
You continue to amaze me!
This is an exceptionable video. I've watched you for a few years and always love your zest for life.
I'm 76...a few years behind you....but I stay active and think about tomorrow .....you have certainly taught by action that life is what you make of it.
These tips to help us stay independent... confident....and safe.....needed and absolutely appreciated. I have the seat cushion that your hubby uses and one purple cushion(a brand that is good for tushy) and they are stacked in my seat. I'm short (5'1") and even with seat raised high....I have a difficult time seeing over the steering wheel. So now with my comfortable booster seat...I can see everything...what a difference.
The tool for helping to get in the car is grand and I'll be getting one. My daughter could have used that after her surgery on foot and ankle getting in and out of car.
Your channel is a great place for entertainment and now for actual advice on taking care of ourselves as we enjoy our years ahead
😍
Great video Nanny! You look beautiful as always! Thank you for all the tips. Take care and God bless you and Moosie ❤️🙏

Great video!! Love these confidence building & safety tips!! Love this video!! Thank you.
Thank you so much for the excellent tips. I would like to get a couple of these things to make life easier.
Looking forward to additional tips next video. You are such a blessing to help us through our aging journey 🌹☕🙏🌄❤️
Loved this…
Kudos Nanny..helpful topic for many. My husband (74) has extensive mobility issues..our bathrooms are not built for this…we have lived in our house that we bought new in 1988, unfortunately both bathrooms have tub showers and it is so hard to get my husband in ( he can’t really bend his knees at all so stepping over the tub is very difficult)… we can’t afford to have a bathroom remodel or to move so I’m looking for transfer chair to tub shower now…I wish there was a senior program available to assist in helping make one’s home safe.
It sounds like you’re doing a great job, and your husband is fortunate to have you, my friend!❤️
You are wonderful 😊💖🌷😻🐾
I think it's good for a lot of people to make everything more accessible. Wider doorways, ramps, grab bars, higher toilet seats, etc. I need to have my bathroom tub switched out for a walk-in shower probably sooner rather than later as I have a problem gaging exactly the tub height and have to be careful every time. Also have trouble putting on pants and thinking of switching to maxi dresses and skirts. I was thinking about your shower that you could either paint or stencil bright white or yellow along the area you step over to get into, in order to see/recognize it better. Could use some safety tape like they use in public locker rooms and pools, to help people notice where to step. Sort of like how a curb is painted bright yellow, or the line in the no passing zone on a road. Just an idea to help gage where to step. Could use those stickers for bathtubs. Anyway, a good video for all of us to help us keep safe. Safety first. I don't have a walker yet, but I always use the cart at the grocery store as a "walker" to help me make the trek through the store, even if I'm just picking up a few things. Good to see Shamu helping with things outside. Therapy Cat. Thank you for the video. Take care and enjoy your Sunday. See you next time.MJ ♥️🐈⬛🥤🛏️🛁⛑️🔎🚽🟨🟨🟨🟨🚿🛋️🦺
Love your videos, Nanny! ❤
Thank you so much nanny. This was so helpful. Honestly, I really do like the chair and also the little tool for the side of the car. Where did you get that one out and you look so lovely all the time thank you so much again nanny you’re so wonderful sending you so many blessings.❤
You’re very welcome, my friend…it's so nice to see you here…check Amazon.com…Haydyson Brand…Multi-functional Car Handle Assist..$9.99❤️
Had to leave for a while but I am back now and always love your channel.👏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Hello Nanny💕
Well, you look so vivacious, in your cowl neck sweater, the color looks like an icy blue, which really is very complementary to your hair and coloring! You are so beautiful!
The information you are sharing is so beneficial like you said, not only for the elderly but family members and friends who could help share this information and make many peoples lives so much easier!
Your delivery the way you make it so matter-of-factly but so informative is just I don’t know you’re a gift you really are…
Much love🙏💕🫶🏻
What brilliant tips Nanny ❤It took me a long time to get through all your ideas, as I checked them all on Amazon.
Looking forward to all your tips. Thank you for thinking of new ideas for us to enjoy with you. 💐❤❤
So helpful Nanny
I really like when you do these videos
Plus you say it to us in a way where it’s not a big deal if we need to use these items
Thanks so much
Those handles in the shower are great
I know Moosie feels safer and can enjoy his shower without having to worry
And of course he has you his best girl standing by
Love you guys❤️😘🙏🙏🙏
After seeing and hearing about the potty riser, I purchased one with a bag to keep it in. I used it when we went on vacation with my daughter and family. It was wonderful not having to ask someone to help me up off the toilet so thankful you mentioned that. Blessings to you from Texas.
Thank you so much for this video! We’re early 70’s our Moms are 94. Couple items new to us . ❤😊
Nanny - another thoughtful video chunk full of helpful ways to be safe as we live in old age♥️♥️
Oh, Nanny, I bought the car gadget to get in and out of the car when you told us about it earlier. Don’t go any where without it. Thanks, again. ❤
You're very welcome, it's such a lifesaver, isn’t it, Maxine?❤️
Nanny are you all still safe from the fires? God Bless and keep you and your family safe. Love and prayers
Yes, thank you,Sally…we are.❤️
Very helpful video 😊
I’m glad you found it helpful! ❤️
Hey Nanny - such good tips ! You think you will be able to do everything forever until one day you can’t. Your whole life changes real fast! You have to figure out plan B to carry on! I love your matelasse pillow shams - that was a great deal. What brand of bed do you have…I know you love it I have The Sleep Number bed that has the adjustable mattress and it’s great, but I like the idea of being able to elevate the back like yours. A lot going on lately with the confirmations and plane accidents on the heels of the fires…I bet Moosie has been glued to the television. I took a break and watched Pride and Prejudice, one of my favorites, and Persuasion - both from Jane Austin novels. It took me away for awhile. I love the British films. Make sure you’re drinking. Sending love and blessings to you, Moosie and Shamu❤❤❤
I’ll try and find the instructions…I think it’s something like Aire_----! Sorry, my friend..❤️ !
This was great. Do one on how to order Amazon’s on phone. I have very good phone but few instructions! Love watching all these years. 80 here
Nanny, we just bought our bed like yours. We love it. Sometimes I have to make my self get out of bed. We both love it. ThAnk you. ❤
I just bought one too after my back injury. It's absolutely wonderful. Love it so much and have several rests a day to revive myself. Expensive but worth every penny
I know. I have trouble staying out of it. ❤
Thanks Nanny. You are so informative. Love to you both, I have a husband, who is having issues moving around and I take care of him .
OH I love love love these videos Nanny! I literally cannot wait for the putting on your trousers maybe socks, that's what I struggle with. xx
Hi! I have been in some store bathrooms where the seats are sooo low! The riser is a great idea! I have learned to put my hand on the front edge of the toilet to push myself up. I am also doing exercises to strengthen my legs. Big fun!😳
You are a gem!!❤
I bought one of those car handle things for my dad many years ago after you mentioned it. They are so handy. You give great tips and tricks, and product info too! x
Thank for the great tips ❤ from Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks for the video I had two knee replacements and I am really interested in getting the knee pads cos some days my knees are painful especially if I walk a lot really appreciate your input thanks
I had both knees replaced last year and many of these things would have helped quite a bit. I turn 60 in 3 days! My husband and I were saying we need to start investing in these things, such as the bed.
I just love your videos! You are so inspiring. You bring joy into my life. Take care...
Nanny, how do you keep that shower so clean. Yes, I love your red door. Thank you for all the great tips. You never stop teaching and we love to learn from you.
I work on it when I’m taking a shower myself, Patsy…❤️
@@crushingtheir80snannyandmoose Wow, I do that too, but I guess I get lazy and I don't get any help from another who uses the same shower. LOL.
I have a higher toilet..you can purchase them.. they are great..here in Ontario..sure you have them there too.
Nice video Nanny. I have the seat riser and it is so much better than the super low toilet seat we have in our second bathroom. A friend told me about it a few years ago. Makes a huge difference. I sometimes wish I had a walker with a seat when I have to stand in line places. Just standing is hard to do for a long period of time. I wonder if I need that handle thing for the car? We have a pickup truck and it is not all that easy to get into.
Great tips for aging.❤️
God bless nanny & moose! ❤️❣️♥️
Thank you for sharing all the wonderful tips...I have gleaned so much helpful advice from your health and living tips...have purchased and am using the collagen and got the night driving glasses easy recipe tips and ideas! etc.etc. Thank you, Thank You!
You’re very welcome, my friend…it's so nice to see you here… ❤️
@@crushingtheir80snannyandmoose ❤❤ You have enriched and strengthened my life more than you will ever know! I am a senior and deal with m.s. and my husband has chronic illness also..chrons disease...and your videos are cheering and strengthening and so informative. God Bless You as you are Blessing so many!!❤
I now use a walker mainly for confidence because I have fallen many times. I was reluctant too at first because of pride but its all good
❤️❤️❤️
This is so informative, Nanny!
Omy gosh. Shamoo is back!!!
Enjoyed the tips on aging ❤
Such helpful info. Thanks ❤
Love your red door!
God bless you n Moosie
