About Susan

Hi my name is Susan. I have worked as a Home Health Aide, Caregiver, and Provider for approximately 10 years. I recently became certified as a CNA and have a certificate through the California Department of Public Health. I am very patient and love meeting new people. I am currently going to school and will be graduating in Fall 2020 with an Associates degree in Health Science while continuing my education in Nursing. I have always been a nurturing person and I love to help people if I am able to. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is that I get to learn a lot from those I am caring for. I love learning from the elderly and children. I am proud that I have accomplished some of my goals into advancing my career and I really love what I do. I just hope that I made a difference in someones life as they did in mine.

Hello! My name is Veronica Cantu, and I'm someone who genuinely enjoys helping others feel safe, supported, and valued in their daily lives. I would describe myself as patient, dependable, and compassionate, with a calm and attentive approach that helps me build trust with the people I care for. What drew me to caregiving is my natural desire to make a positive difference in someone's day-to-day life. I find it meaningful to support others with both their needs and their independence, whether that means offering companionship, helping with routines, or simply being someone they can rely on. What I enjoy most about caregiving is the human connection. I appreciate the small moments, sharing conversations, bringing comfort during difficult times, and seeing someone feel more at ease because of the support I provide. One personal achievement I'm proud of is developing strong communication and problem-solving skills in challenging situations, while always maintaining patience and respect for the people I support. I look forward to bringing kindness, reliability, and respect into every caregiving relationship I build.
