About Linda

I became a caregiver over 20 years ago. It Began with my next door neighbor needing help caring groceries from a taxi to her house. She was a senior who was deaf and did not know sign language and she took care of her daughter who had cerebral policy. I began a relationship and help transport to market to doctors appointment. IHSS paid for care and it allowed me to continue care for her and her daughter. Over the years she passed and I took the responsibility of her daughter in my home full time. She lost the battle to cancer and I took care of her till her last breath. I always Had compassion for others helping as much as possible and since then i been working as a caregiver since. I had made a Promise to the woman that was deaf, that I would never leave her daughter in a convalescent home. I am Proud to say I kept that promise. Now I feel I can still help others and I am willing to do what it takes to achieve those goals.

    $15.00/hour · Paramount, CA
    I am currently working full time as a Certified Nursing Assistant since late 2013 in two skilled nursing facilities in Bellflower 5 days a week. I am strongly leaning to leaving my 7-3 shift, and keeping my 3-11 shift. Hence the reason I put up my application here in carelinx to find a potential client. But, if my potential client prefers that I work in the afternoons, I can switch my 3-11 shift to morning shift. Prior to being a CNA, I was a full-time caregiver for my late mother from 2003-2013, who was going through a multitude of illness including dementia that later progressed to Alzheimer's. It was through taking care of my late mother that I first learned about the values of sacrifice, empathy, patience, kindness, and perseverance. Though I have lost ten years and missed opportunities (including dropping out of my Master's program in Sociology in 2002/2003) from having the responsibility in taking care of my late mother, my one and still only regret was I wish I was better caregiver then if I had all the skills and knowledge that I have now acquired working as a CNA. As a CNA, I have a strong work ethic, dedication, commitment, and efficient with my time management. I would like to bring this work experience as well as my 10 years caregiver commitment to my own late mother to my potential client. Lastly, my fee is negotiable depending on the needs of my client and the location.
