Meet the Founder..

 

Hey there, I'm Nkatha! I whipped up Sananga Care Homes just for awesome folks like you. Imagine a place that's all about good vibes, fun times, and teamwork – a spot where folks like us get a fresh shot at life!

I'm straight outta Kenya, and I've hustled in healthcare for over 15 years, from running HIV/AIDS programs in impoverished communities to taking on the bustling streets of Manhattan with big-shot pharmaceutical companies.

Sananga is my playground, and even though the stress levels can get sky-high (hello, caregiver life!), catch me behind my computer- fearlessly advocating for you, rocking fun group sessions with the crew, busting out a move to Alexa, getting my hands dirty in our backyard garden, or whipping up some turmeric-infused soap bars! Life here is a blast, and I'm thrilled to have you on board! 🌟 #SanangaStrong #Sanangacares
