About Kaylynn

I am 31 years old. Born in Port Hueneme. Raised in Ventura County. I have an older sister who is also caregiver. She played a huge roll and was a great influence. We were raised/ adopted by our grandmother and as she gets older we wanted to be the ones to care for her. My sister is married w 4 children so I know it will ultimately be my responsibility. My grandmother is a feisty, strong willed women who has taught me my greatest skill, PATIENCE! She isn't at that stage where she needs 24 hrs care so I go over every Sunday to take her church. Then grocery shopping. Fill weekly med box. Then go over again mid week for light housekeeping. Nail painting. Or whatever else is needed. I have a fun friendly personality and like to bring a positive energy w me wherever I go. Good vibes and happiness is key. Over the past 6yrs I've cared for 3 persons. My most recent is the first that I've been there til the very end. He just passed on Feb 17, 2016. It was/ is hard but he enlightened my life and I will always smile in his memory. I don't have all the certifications and licenses that most do but I have wonderful references.

    $12.00/hour · Oxnard, CA
    My name is Marissa Herrera. Some of my qualities are being patient, caring, loyal, and compassionate as a caregiver. I became a caregiver because I love to help out others and one day would hope to become a registered nurse! I enjoy building relationships and being able to be there for those in need. I've been a caregiver for 2 and a half years, I have experience with quadriplegics, wheel chair bound patients, or have cerebral palsy... I have experience in bathing, shaving, dressing, and using a Hoyer lift. I also do house cleaning and cooking... Don't mind pets :)
