About Rita

Taking care of older adults was an easy and natural transition for me after caring for my own mom full time. Becoming a caregiver helped me recover from loosing her. I cared for many elder members of my family also and found I have a natural gift. I enjoy their company and I love to hear their stories. I provide companionship, light housework, grocery shopping, take to appointments and provide meals. I have seen people recover from loneliness, some illnesses and become able to do more for themselves with the right encouragement and having someone who cares. I am married with 2 boy's and a home-school Mom of my younger son. I am available part-time. Excellent references available upon request.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I' am very passionate about my job. I love working for others, providing the necessary care to improve the quality of life for my clients, I' am very patient, I' am a good listener, I communicate affectively, I' am a quick thinker, problem solver, and very caring. I became a caregiver to help others during a very delicate time. It is not always easy to ask for help, or receive help from anyone. This is what drives me to help others. To help them feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy making others happy. A personal achievement I' am proud is returning to school part time to receive a social work degree.

I have and continue to be passionate about caring for people and feel very blessed to have this as my career. I believe that one should always treat others the way they want to treated, with respect, patience, dignity, and kindness. I enjoy caring for people and loving what you do is most important to me. My daughter Saturday has shown me everyday what a gift it is to have such love and compassion for others and also having taken care of my elderly parents has been a gift so it is my family that attracts me to the career in Caregiving. What I enjoy most about Caregiving is knowing that I have made each day more positive and hopefully helped someone to feel better emotionally and physically. A personal achievement I am most proud of is my volunteer work at Scottish Rite Children's Hospital where I was assigned to the Oncology Unit and working just to make the children on that unit love, play, or do artwork taught me how precious life is and how even the smallest kindness matters more than we know. Request pay is $27/hr. Negotiable pay based on location and hours.
