For the Naidus, Children's is the 'family business'

For the Naidu family of Irving, Children’s is “the family business.”

All four Naidus work at Children’s. Dad Krishnamurthy (Kris), mom Euphraisrani (Rani), and their sons Pradeep (Freddy) and Sandeep try every day to make life better for children through their jobs here.

“We’re all proud to be here,” Kris says. “We’re always telling friends and patients about Children’s. We say this is the best place for children.”

Building on their convictions, Rani and Kris have recruited a number of nurses and other employees to work at Children’s. And, of course, they’ve recruited their sons.

Kris and Rani came to Children’s six years ago; he as a health unit coordinator and she as a nurse. They both work the same night shift hours so their schedules are in synch. She works on a floor that cares for children with endocrine disorders, cystic fibrosis and epilepsy; he’s on the renal care unit.

Sandeep, Freddy’s younger brother, works on the cardiac care floor as a health unit coordinator. He’s studying to become a CT technologist. “I plan to stay at Children’s,” he says. “I love kids.”

Freddy, who’s an administration assistant, is pursuing a master’s in business administration and master’s in health administration and sees his future in a management position at Children’s.
