About Casta

I love taking care of people, especially the elderly. My entire career has been in care-giving, first in the convent (Franciscanas de la Immaculada, Guatemala) and now in private practice. I have Guatemalan nursing credentials (not recognized in the US). Everyone says that I am hard working. I will start coursework for my CNA in June of this year. I am very patient, loving and kind. People say that I smile all of the time. I am never stressed. People say that I have a good sense of humor. But [she] must work, doing something useful with [her] own hands, that [she] may have something to share with those in need. (Ephesians 4:28 NIV)

Santa Isabel Colegio("St. Isabel School")
Responsibilities: Staff recruitment, payroll, parent relations (all aspects of school administration). This was a school of approximately 100 students and fourteen staff members, grades kindergarten through high school. This occupation was in connection with my vocation (21 years) as a Franciscan nun. I left the convent when the mission changed from care-giving to missionary work. This is a worthy mission, but my interests lie in care-giving (nursing, education, child care, elderly care).

Empathy and compassion, Patience, Trustworthy, Reliable and Flexible. I enjoy working with people and most enjoy jobs where i have one-on-one interaction with different clients I enjoy taking care of elderly. What I enjoy most of being a caregiver is that I'm able to help them with all their needs. I'm being able to train and educate other caregivers because of my experience.

I am a loving and extremely caring CNA with hands-on experience. I have been a caregiver for over ten years and am also a mother of three. Anybody willing to employ me won't regret including me as part of their family. I would be happy to work full days, full nights including full weekends and part time too from Monday through Sunday. I really love caregiving as a career. For me this is not only working, but caring with love and passion in my heart. You will always be happy to have me in your family.
