ABOUT 1HEART caregivers
COMPANY OVERVIEW
Our mission is to provide high quality in-home care through a client-centered and service-oriented approach, one heart, one smile, one family at a time.
1Heart Caregiver Services is an in-home care agency that specializes in providing caregiving services to the elderly and other adults who require some assistance in meeting their healthcare needs.
We understand that caring for older adults and individuals with disabilities requires the presence of a caregiver who is not only experienced and trained but also trustworthy, honest and sensitive to the needs of her care recipient. Our caregivers are trained to work in conjunction with other professional service providers and to become first line reporters of changes in the client’s condition.
Our innovative team approach is designed to address the specific needs of our clients and their families. We explore possibilities instead of focusing on limitations. Our caregivers are carefully matched to ensure they are an appropriate fit for the individual whose care they are responsible for.
Our caregivers are employees who are bonded, insured, health cleared and background checked.
Yet, like most immigrants who came to this country, Belina felt that moving to the United States was the best decision she could make for her family even though this meant being away from her parents who were now approaching their golden years.
The guilt and sadness of being far away and not being able to take care of her mother was frustrating but finding a reliable caregiver gave her the peace of mind that her mom was taken care of by someone who really cared for her.
The realization that other people have to cope with the same unfortunate situation inspired Belina to provide families with the peace of mind that even in their absence, their loved one was in good hands. Shortly after her mom’s passing, she started 1Heart, a company that was founded on a commitment that no one has to feel the frustration of not being there for their aging parents.
Since its inception, the 1Heart family of caregivers continue to provide reliable, responsible and professional in home care to every person they care for. This is her way of giving back to mom the love and care that she wasn’t able to give in person because of the distance that separated them.
“My mom continues to inspire me and I see her in every smile that we get from those that we take care of every single day. Nothing compares to family taking care of family but we are the next best thing.” – Belina C. Nernberg

Managing Director
Bryan Chopitea has extensive knowledge in sales, marketing, and business operations acquired through years of employment and business ventures.
He decided to explore other opportunities in the U.S. and eventually learned about the growth and possibility for progress and profit in the healthcare industry. Having been able to experience the business know-hows in 1Heart Santa Barbara’s sales department firsthand, Bryan was enticed to finally get started with his own 1Heart franchise. He is, after all, a compassionate individual who has always had the heart to care for everyone around him, and the chance to be able to put up a business that does exactly that in the senior care industry is a dream come true for him.
He is determined and equally willful that his home care business will definitely be one for the books.
Director of Operations
Rovie Chopitea has various experience in different careers. When she was younger, she explored many opportunities and made the most out of her employment in every company and at every position and field she’s ever worked for.
Apart from being a career woman, she was also a successful entrepreneur. She owned and managed several businesses in the Philippines.
When she arrived in the U.S., she heard about 1Heart Caregiver Services through Belina Calderon-Nernberg, CEO & Founder. When Rovie found out about the franchising opportunities, she immediately promised herself that she will someday have her own 1Heart franchise one way or another.
Senior care has always been closed to Rovie’s heart as she took good care of her sick grandmother growing up.
Today, Rovie is determined to assist her husband, Bryan, in running their own 1Heart caregiver agency and be able to successfully say one day that, because of their compassion, hard work and determination, they, too, are living the American dream.
