About Laketia

I becamea caregiver to fill my dream of helping not only the elderly people that are in need. What I like about being a caregiver is the fact that with my help I the elderly and people in need push things that they can't do on their own and that makes me happy. one of my personal achievement is becoming a caregiver and this is a personal achievement because I've always wanted to do it and now that I'm older I actually do have the chance and am doing what I like to do.I am 33 years old with two children living in Long Beach California. Outside of my career of being a caregiver I like cooking, cleaning, and working out.

    $25.00/hour · Long Beach, CA
    I'm a compassionate and patient kind of person. I'm a single dad to a 11-year old daughter after taking care of my wife who died of cancer for 3 years. My mantra in life is to treat other people the way I wanted to be treated. My daughter is always saying that I'm too nice. People who would meet me and my daughter for the first time are saying that I'm raising my daughter as kind and polite as I am. I'm eager to learn new knowledge and open to suggestions. I would rather ask questions than pretend to know everything and fall short of the expectations. I always put myself in my patients'shoes to understand them better. It is not them but it's the illness that is making them not to be themselves at the moment. It feels great to be appreciated by the patient and their family for what i've done to lighten the everyday pain in their lives. I'm proud with what I do, and I find other ways to do my best by adding value to the career I've chosen to do.
