About Cristina G.

My name is Cristina, and I am a kind, friendly and dedicated carer who truly loves looking after others. I’ve been working in care for over 13 years, including 6 years as a live-in carer, and I can honestly say it’s a job I take great pride in. Caring for people brings me real joy and fulfilment, it’s something I feel naturally drawn to.Over the years, I’ve supported individuals in a variety of settings, from private homes to schools and nurseries. I’ve also worked as a tutor, which has helped me develop strong communication skills and the ability to connect with people of all ages. I hold the Care Certificate and continue to approach every role with empathy, patience and a genuine desire to make a positive difference in someone’s day.I would describe myself as empathetic, calm, patient and friendly. I always try to bring positivity into everything I do and believe that a cheerful attitude can make a big difference. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my lovely family and friends, they keep me grounded and happy.Above all, I aim to give the very best version of myself to every client I support. I’m a happy, optimistic person who prefers to focus on the positive side of life and help others do the same.
