Meet Our Team at The Birches at Newtown

Christine Riley has been a member of the local community for over 45 years and is a graduate of Council Rock High School. She spent 15 years as an assistant preschool teacher before joining the Birches at Newtown, where she has been a dedicated team member for almost eight years. Christine now serves as the Resident Life Director, a role that perfectly reflects her passion for working with seniors — whom she considers an extension of her own family. Outside of work, Christine enjoys spending time with her two daughters, Alyssa and Nicole. She loves reading and spending time down the shore, with Cape May, NJ being her favorite place.

Sarah brings over 20 years of customer-focused experience to her role, beginning in her family’s automotive business where she developed a strong foundation in service and relationship-building. Her entrepreneurial journey let her to launch TaylorMarie’s Apparel, a mobile boutique serving seniors in retirement communities — an experience that deepened her commitment to helping and working with Senior.

I have spent the past 25 years as a Life Enrichment Director in a skilled nursing facility. Marketing and sales to seniors has always held a special place in my heart. Specifically, meeting residents and families and educating them on different programs. Growing up, I had a close relationship with my grandparents. Hearing their many stories has always been a favorite past-time of mine. My grandparents inspired me to make a difference in the geriatric population.
