Hello, I have been doing care giving for 18 years. I started out with my son whom is disabled. The reason I got into this field was mainly my son, but after wards became to love and have a passion for it. There is nothing better then a feeling knowing that the one you love is in good hands and will be taken care of the way you would want them to be taken care of. I am passionate, caring, calm and have a lot of patience's. The one thing I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is the reward knowing that you have helped someone's day be brighter even if it was sitting down having a conversation, or cleaning up. I have worked in Adult Foster Care homes as well as Group homes supporting individuals with mental and developmental disabilities. I have also worked one on one in peoples person homes helping with ADL's meal prep, house cleaning. I started out young house keeping as my mother owned her own business , and I learned from her. I have many years experience in house keeping. However, I know everyone is different and likes things done their way. Show/tell me once and that's all it takes.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
