About Krista

My name is Krista. I am a single mother to 2 wonderful little boys. They are my 2 reasons to strive to be a better person and they both have taught me so many things! I believe that I am a great fit for the caregiving position available, I have a lot of patients, I remain calm when something doesn't go as planned, and I take my job very seriously! What attracted me to being a caregiver is for sure not the money you make, or how much! I have never been the type to care more about the money, I care more about making the client feel comfortable, safe, and most of all enjoy life like they should, and putting a smile on their faces! That is the most important thing that means the most to me, and that is what I enjoy most out of being a Caregiver! It is about making our clients we care for happy, its not about the money!
