kathrina T.

$20.00/hour · San Leandro, CA

My name is Kathrina, but friends and family call me Lina. I'm 24 years old but I I have a lot of experience with caregiving. My personality traits that I believe make me an excellent caregiver are; I'm empathetic and compassionate, which I believe helps me to connect with my patients more which therefore makes the patient more comfortable with having help from someone who essentially starts off as a stranger. I also consider myself to be very positive and enthusiastic which is good in any environment. What initially attracted me to caregiving was seeing my mom do it as her profession. The joy she gets from being able to help those in need and to build real bonds with the patient and their families is something you can't get in many other professions these days. What I enjoy most about caregiving is ending everyday knowing that I helped someone in need. The personal achievement I am most proud of is the annual food and clothing giveaway I started this year with my siblings aimed to help the underserved in our communities.

Catherine B.

$15.00/hour · Newman, CA

I became a caregiver so that I could help those who cannot help themselves. I find pleasure in hearing someone tell me I'm a Godsend, or thank me everyday for what I do. I became a caregiver after my mother fell ill with Lupus and Fibromyalgia. I care for her everyday, as well as my clients. I do not have any formal training; in other words, I am not a CNA or RN. But I am an HCA, certified in California. I have experience with Alzheimer's and Dementia, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's, and motor vehicle accidents. I will clean, cook, remind the client of their medications when it's time to take them, bathe the client(s), and just give them an all around good experience and keep them company. I've even been known to play games with them to keep their minds off of things (especially with dementia patients). I'd prefer not to do hospice work, though I have limited experience. I will always take great care of your loved one, and I'll always be on time and ready to work with a smile and a warm hello.
