About Paula

I am a Spanish speaking Caregiver with two months experience as a Caregiver in United States. I am already approved by IHSS. Also, twelve years of nursing experience in Mexico. As a Christian woman, I place a high value on taking care of people who are not able or are limited in taking care of themselves. My twelve years of nursing experience are very beneficial to me providing quality care.

I love listening to their stories and I take comfort in knowing I will always be there to help.
