$23.00/hour · Los Angeles, CA

Hello my name is Rosana Valadez and i became a caregiver a decade ago when I had to take care of one of my loved ones. I enjoyed taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. What I like about being a caregiver is that I learn more and more as time passes, what my patients expect from me and also what I learn from them, the care that they want, and the friendship that is built. I'm caring, outgoing, fun and always have a smile on my face. I'm a people person - friendly, kind, gentle, compassionate, dependable. I have a good sense of humor. I love being a caregiver and helping families. I can provide quality care for you or your loved one and put your mind at ease. Available Monday-Friday from 8am to 4pm. Full time or atleast 30 hours a week.
