Josefina’s Bio
Hello! I'm Josefina Fernandez, a Dartmouth student originally from Chile, and I am passionate about providing compassionate and reliable care. With a background in both childcare and pet care, I have developed a keen sense of responsibility, empathy, and patience, which are essential qualities for a care companion.
In my previous roles, I have cared for individuals with varying needs, including the elderly and those with mobility issues. My experience includes assisting with daily activities, providing companionship, ensuring medication schedules are followed, and helping with light housekeeping. I am trained in first aid and CPR, which enables me to handle emergencies calmly and efficiently.
I am dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for those in my care, ensuring they feel comfortable and supported. My bilingual skills in English and Spanish allow me to communicate effectively with a diverse range of clients.
I look forward to the opportunity to provide exceptional care and companionship. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your specific needs and how I can assist.
