Hi! My name is Kaila and I'm currently a nursing student at UTSA! My first healthcare experience was being an intern at Baptist Hospital for, then I followed with The Brooks of Cibolo as a caregiver/ medication aid. My current job is at Bella Groves as a caregiver/ medication aid. I'm very positive and outgoing, I love making people smile! Being there to help someone maintain their dignity and help keep their life as it was before is why I became a caregiver.

Enjoy helping with daily living

I was 15 years old and just started my freshman year of high school when I was placed in a class called Intergenerational Studies. For 2 hours each day I was taken to the nursing home called Golden Years there in Elgin, Tx. I started off just getting residents from their rooms to come and do activities with me. But it wasn't long and I was working side by side with CNAs, RNs, and at one point the DON had me shadow her for 2 weeks. I just got really interested and a few years after graduation and having my son, I pursued a CNA certification and was assigned the hospice hall and the "lockdown unit" which was occupied by the more violent patients and those with conditions such as Alzheimer's and/or parkinson's, as well as those with behavioral health conditions. I honestly just fell in love with everything about caring for the elderly. Even the hard and very emotional side of the care I provide is something I wouldn't want to stop doing. I would love to get my CNA back but just haven't attempted to do so since my husband passed in 2011. Since my high school days I have worked with all ages of people, from a 2 year old little princess to a 98 year old gentleman I referred to as Fred Astaire due to them looking like twins. He loved it and would smile so big when I walked in every day; and every day he would say "Good morning Ms. Judy (Garland). You feel like dancing the day away?" It's things like that for which I love my work. Please feel free to ask anything, I would love to tell everything now but there is just so much I've been blessed to have experienced with so many different people I'd never be done.

I love people of all ages and from all backgrounds. I have worked with children of all ages, corporate professionals and hospice patients who are all unique and wonderfully interesting. My most rewarding achievement has been loving and raising my children. I was blessed to be able to work in our home supporting my family and community while my kids were young. Now, my interests are centered on compassion care for the wiser generations. Also, I am Covid vaccinated!

I have a caring, nurturing nature, soft spoken and compassionate. I don't rush my clients and have a great relationship with them. I am requested to return regularly. Working in a cancer hospital my whole career, I am very good at taking care of and anticipating the needs of my clients, but also filling the void of loneliness that many of the elderly/ill clients experience. I was honored with Employee of the Year in 2019 at my previous employment.

I have worked in this field for 35 yrs. I have been certified in 3 states. I am hard working, compassionate,caring and loyal. I love my clients and they love me.

Lots of training

Hello my name is Natasha. When I was 14 years old my great grandmother who I was very close to got diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Her memory declined fairly quickly but I was able to take care of her after school and on weekends until I was 18 years old. She then got moved to a nursing home for her final days. That is what started this journey in wanting to become a caregiver, I loved taking care of my great grandmother and I want to be there to care of any others in need. After my great grandmother passed I became a caregiver/resident assistant. After that I took some time off to become a stay at home mom to my 3 wonderful boys! Two of my boys are special needs my oldest is Autistic and my youngest has Stickler Syndrome. I have enjoyed being home with them for the last 5 years but they are in school full time now and I am ready to get back to taking care of others in need. In total I have about 14 years of caregiving experience.
