About Mary

My name is Mary Fotu. I've been caregiver for 11 years which led me to do something that I love which is going to school as a CNA in 2006 which I graduated being a certified CNA. Within those 11 years I've been helping my mother and older sister out with their elders, which I have a lot of experience in. I have dealt with elders that have Alzheimer's/dementia, COPD, Disabled & Diabetic & etc. I cook, clean, lift, give baths/showers, change diapers, remind to take their medication & etc. If there's is anything that the elder needs to be done I can do it. I basically make this as my career & I take care of them as they are my own grandparents.

She had a broken leg from a car accident that she needed a lot of assistance. Drove her while using her car to her work out to church to grocery shopping to home. I cooked & cleaned for her.

Why did I become a caregiver? I became a caregiver because of my desire to help others especially the elderly. My passion and dedication for seniors is very important to me. Nothing brings me great pleasure in assisting people that are in need of some care. My greatest achievement in life are my children. I am a mother of four and a grandmother of six. Teaching my children to respect and help others gives me the satisfaction that when in some giving time I need help, they will assist me just like I assist and care for others in the same manner. I'm not just a caregiver but a friend and if God gave me the patience, understanding and caring way to help others than I am here for that. God bless you and hope to assist anyone in need.

Hi my name is Maritza Pedro I believe what makes me a great caregiver is that not only do I have 6 years of experience. I started really young at this when I was 20 years old. So therefore for me taking care of our elderly has been the most rewarding experience because I have learn so much and truly love what I do. I give my best by understanding their needs and disabilities that they might have. Taking care of a human is a big responsibility that I do with a lot of love, compassion , dedication and understanding.
