About Annet

I am excited to apply for this job as a caregiver/Certified Nursing Assistant because I believe in making a difference in the lives of others. I have a bachelor in Education from Africa but when I came to United States I switched to healthcare and begun with a Certified Nursing Assistant as a foundation to my future career of becoming a registered nurse. After college, my elderly grand mom was ill that she could not manage her activities of daily living and I cared for her for seven months, I realized that this profession was best for me as I helped her with compassion. Caring for her, I attained patience,empathy and passion which makes me a great caregiver for this job. Also as a mother of two children, I have learnt to be patient, encouraging, serve them sacrificially with unconditional love as individuals, and I have enjoyed taking care of them. I am looking for a more challenging job where I impact others positively and the care giving job crowns all these qualities. I'm a team player and being a certified Nursing Assistant, I have opportunity to work with different kind of people daily.

    I was advocating for children in releasing them physically, socially, economically, and Spiritually from poverty to becoming self-sufficient to the community in future. These aspects where passed on to the registered children and their caregivers through empowering them with income generating skills, health and sanitation seminars. Ensuring the children attend school, provide them with scholastic materials, and tuition. They receive medical attention when sick from recognized health facilities, and carried out regular health screenings on them to ensure they are healthy. Organizing spiritual workshops for children, and ensuring various play activities are in place for them to make a choice. I was a team leader, financial controller to the project, and to achieve success, I cooperated with other staffs, church partner committee, other stakeholders in planning and the implementation of plans.

    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.
