About Rita

Experience: 3 yrs

Hello I'm Rita. You'll find me to be calm, caring, intuitive, reliable and flexible as needs do change. I have always been a caregiver it's is a big part of who I am. I raised 3 beautiful kids & helped raise others with Nannying and I do babysitting. I cared for my own aging and terminal parents. I've been a certified Dental Asst with X-Ray cert, nanny, and a school bus driver. I'm a natural giver. Families want the best for their loved ones and I want to help meet the need. I am CPR and 1st Aid certified. I can help with medication, shopping, doctor appt. light housework and meals. I'm a pretty good cook! I've assisted with post operative care for knee replacements, open heart, head and neck surgery and palliative care. In my spare time, I like to be in my flower beds, loving on my dog, watercolor painting, drawing and organizing my home. I've had my security clearance & drug screening. When I drove I was chosen (out of 50+drivers) as Bus Driver of the year. I am a non smoker

Rita is wonderful! From helping me dry my hair, going for walks, taking me grocery shopping, & coming back to my home and helping me prep food. Things I have been unable to do for a while, and she gives me such hope! I truly cannot recommend her enough if you are needing household help, or to go places, I just companionship. She is stellar!
