I became a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of elders. I have kids of my own and as a mother, I think I've helped my kids in many ways, and I believe I can do the same for the elderly. I enjoy helping and caring for others just in general. One of the many things I like about being a caregiver is being able to get to know them, and helping them. I want to help them and make the most of their time. Something you should know about me is that I recently had a baby and I'm trying to work as much as I can but just enough so then I can come home and take care of my baby.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
