About Nataska

I have been a caregiver and Patient Care Associate for over 25years and love it. I enjoy working with the elderly and sick people, but most of all you can a lot from the elderly. I try to give respect and love and care as often as I can to my Patients and sometimes find myself getting a little to attached. My most personal achievement is having the gift God gave me to care for the sick and elderly, that's what I most enjoy to make them smile and feel good even on a bad day. I am a divorced mother of one son, currently in school for Surgical Technician. I enjoy spending time with my family, I have two brothers and two sisters, I was born in Chicago, Ill. My mother is a dialysis patient and has been for 25years as of April 2014. I took care of my uncle up until his passing in Oct.2010, he was a Stroke Patient and later diagnosed with cancer, I moved in with him and did what any family member or child would do for a parent or relative, with help of my brother, we did what my mother wanted. I'm just Blessed to be able to have the gift that God has planted in me and do what he intended for me.

I"m an amazing caregiver because I show empathy and compassion. I have the desire to help others and I always let my clients/patients know that I care and willing to do what I can to help. I'm flexible. I understand needs may change and unexpected events can happen. I'm always willing to prepare to go with the flow. I'm trustworthy. I understand most people who need home care services are in a vulnerable position and they are inviting someone in their home to be near their valuables. I am trustworthy in this regard because I respect others personal belongings as well as in being trusted to keep client's information confidential. I'm reliable. You can count on me to be there, unless there is an emergency. And those needing home care services need a reliable and dependable care giver. I am also patient and understanding and want to make the world a better place! I became a caregiver because I enjoy spending one on one time with clients/patients and getting to know their personalities, life stories, likes, family etc. Also, because I enjoy working in calm environments and taking care of household duties which includes cooking, cleaning and personal care, organizing, errands, etc.

I am a great caregiver because I am compassionate,patient,and I love,love, working with geriatrics. I became a caregiver when my mom became ill in 1995.She had a stroke,my mom is a very private and independent person. The fulfillment I get knowing that I can actually help a person who needs me gives me a wonderful feeling at the end of the day. I love people in general,although sometimes the appreciation isn't reciprocated,I still feel I did what God has chosen me to do on my behalf. I am punctual,accurate , and over abundantly filled with love for people in need . I am a true humanitarian. I pledge to do whatever is required of me as best as I knw how. I am a certified nursing assistant looking to help where I am needed. I would love to help with your mother because I know it can be overwhelming for family members. Please contact me at your earliest. I will be of great assistant to you,the patient and other family members. Thank you and may God bless u and your family.
