About Kristina

My name is kristina and ive been a caregiver for just over 8 years. I have worked with a range of different people including children and adults. Ive did Alzheimer's and dementia and trachs and vents. Ive worked with feeding tubes and bearthing machines as well. I first became interested in caregiving when i was a kid. I watched my mom be a cna for 18years before becoming a nurse. I love helping others and making then feel special in their day to day life. I am a hard working single mother of 4 looking to make a big life change and come to Arizona from iowa so that the father of my children can help raise them. Im currently lookin for jobs so that i have something lined up before arriving. I am very flexible and wil consider offers for overnights and days but not 2-10 as i have children in school and i tried 2-10 but i never got to see my littles. I love being a cna and i cant wait to start nursing school!
