Hi! My name is Joy N. Urot. Certified Caregiver here in the philippines. I am looking for a family who can help me with sponsorship. Currently, I took the caregiver pathway program that canada offers to foreign workers like me. I will shoulder all the cost of sponsorship fees thru Roman and Asociates Imigration Services. I started taking care of kids when I was still in college as part of my part time job and since I am a mom of 2 lovely girls. I have lots o experiencein taking care of kids, and also my 68 year old mother is living with me. That is why I am competent too that I will meet expectations in handling older adults. I would love to be part of your family, whether it is live in or live out. Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you so much and stay safe!
