About Carita

I am a great caregiver because I enjoy caring for those who need help, mainly because it is a gift from God, he gave me the ability to be patient, and caring so I may care for others. This has been a passion of mine since I was young. I have had office jobs that paid good money but it wasn't until a few years ago that I realized what my calling was and that is to be a caregiver. I want to let the elderly, children, sick to know that there is someone who really cares and is willing to help no matter what the situation is. Good care, a smile, respect, and kind words can save and breathe life into those that need help and healing.
