About Christina

Honestly, I've always had a giving personality and I like helping people. But I'd love to tell you a story, which really helped me make this decision. When my grandfather passed away, my grandmother was left alone. Plus, her arthritis was starting to worsen, and she began having more and more trouble preparing her meals, bathing, and getting her groceries. So I became her caregiver. I stayed with my grandma for longer hours than was expected typically playing some Patti Labelle (her favorite music) while telling stories about growing up in Miami. That was very soothing for my grandma, and that inspired me to join this field.

Hello, I am a middle aged woman with 10 years experience working in a Nursing Home at the beginning of my career, I started at age 14 until 24. I was responsible for all care of 18 women: medicine distribution, cooking meals, bathing, dressing, arts & crafts and communicating. I then spent 15 years at a foster care agency as a family consultant, working directly with children and families in the foster care system. I became a foster parent and ultimately an adoptive parent. Currently, I own Kindred Spirits, a Healing & Art business. I make homemade non chemical bath and beauty products using essential oils, painting, woodwork and am a Reiki Master. My passion is creativity, healing, spreading love & light to others and just being a good listener.
