I became a full time paid caregiver six years ago. However, back in my home country, caregiving is part of almost every family life. We look after our parents and grandparents till they pass on to the other life. Since becoming a caregiver in California, I began to love the job and began to connect closely with all my clients. I love to listen to clients stories and what they were before they need assistance with daily living. I really love to listen and share these life stories and it feels so satisfying to know that we are taking care of people who had given their services to this great nation. I love keeping my clients happy and sharing stories of their past lives and also sharing mine. I have handled some critical hospice cases and someone who was diagnosed to live for only 6 months. I took care of the person, taking care of his wounds until they clear, and keeping the person alive for over 2 years to the amazement of hospice and the family themself. Caregiving is in our blood. I think of the love and care that our parents shared with us and I feel it a duty that we return this love and care to our seniors and loved ones.

I have been my daughter's care giver for over six years due to her disabilities. I am also currently part-time employed and my main duties are as a Speech and Language Assistant for Spanish Speaking children.I have also worked with Senior Citizens for over ten years, in supervising their medication intake, and minor household upkeep. I am well known for my patience, and compassionate personality.
