About Linda

1. I became a Medical Assistant back in 2005 and really enjoyed working with all my patients. In 2012 I decided that I wanted to be even more involved in people's lives and in 2013 I became a CNA. 2. I love that I can have that one on one connection with not just the patient's but also the families. 3. I'm proud to say that I am a single mom of two children, one of my two children suffers from autism. Despite everything going on I managed to go to school not once but twice and keep a full time job. 4. I can be a bit shy at times but after getting to know each other I know that I can get along with just about anyone and everyone. I take my job very seriously but do always keep in mind that it's really important to make everyone happy.

    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.

    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.
