Hi! My name is Karina. I am fun, responsible, honest, and a quick learner. I love people! I currently am a student at the University of Oregon; I am a double major in Psychology and Sociology. I have mostly family experience in care-giving. My grandma was diagnosed with cancer two years ago and I was her caregiver during the summer. I also believe that I have been a caregiver in my own home all through my adolescent years. I come from a family of 9 children and I am the second oldest (but have always been treated as the oldest :)). I have also been a caregiver for friends while they have been gone on vacations. Which consisted of cleaning, watering plants, feeding and caring for animals (2 dogs) and picking up mail. I understand what it takes and I have great patience. I would be an excellent candidate, because of my ability to be understanding, caring, loving, and loyal. I am new to care.com so I do not know if there is anything else you would like to know. If you do have any questions or you find that a background check would be a necessity, please let me know! Thank you, Karina
