About Karina

My personality traits that make me a great caregiver would be that I am empathetic, compassionate, and extremely patient. I was attracted to becoming a caregiver as I saw the need of companionship and time to which most family members couldn't afford to give their own time. I enjoy learning new things about each individual. New challenges are welcome head-on. Personal achievement I am most proud of would be learning that I was placed on this earth to be a Great Caregiver with over 20 years of personal experience.

Hello..first off I want to express my belief and reasons for why I'm in this field. People of all ages need assistance. .whether it be temporary or permanent. I have been there when it has come to having babies (they grown now) after surgery, or a long time position of assistant. I love what I do, I have compassion for the hurting and patience. I have references for that :) I'm a License massage therapist that believes even touch heals. Whether young or old. I have sense of humor..don't mind in repeating myself a million times ( that's the patience I have ) when it comes to alziemers Love to stay busy,love to read,LOVE TO COOK, I am a believer In Jesus Christ! my children are grown now,I am a grandma..I schedule my time with my family on my daysoff. Prefer to be on a consistent schedule so it doesn't cause confusion to my client or outside life. Dependable..never late ( I have proof from clients :) ) And can be in most cases..flexible. Feel free to ask for references. . Be blessed and good blessings on your search!

What makes me a great caregiver is that I love to help people and socialize with everyone I've helped my grandmother for a while she currently has arthritis also other conditions and it's hard for her to do things that's where I step in and help her I think this helps me become a better person i'm able to care for other people the way I care for my grandmother
