I took interest in Caregiving 25 years ago when I needed to earn extra money on top of my regular place of employment. Since then I've worked both for an agency and also do private caregiving. I enjoy and find it very rewarding to help someone in need and hope that someday if needed I'll have someone with my abilities and personality to care for me. I find it very rewarding to be there for someone in need and to also meet new people. I once was told that you cannot make caregiving personal and I absolutely disagree with that. The client becomes your friend whom relies on you for so much. My personal achievement that I'm most proud of is becoming the hard working caring mom and wife I am. I love making people happy

I feel like I am a good caregiver because when my dad turned 80 he needed extra help because he started forgetting some stuff. Started to get Alzheimer's. So I began helping him with medication, cooking, cleaning, laundry, errands, doctor appointments, bill paying etc. Sometimes I would find myself at his home 4-5 times a day answering questions over and over again or just to keep him company. He had some amazing stories of his life so I overstayed my visits. It was great! He passed away at 90. Then my sister started having medical problems when she turned 65. I did the same for her and would spend a lot of time with her as well. I cleaned her home, did her laundry and took her to doctor appointments. I kept her company at the hospital as often as I could. We spent a lot of time on the phone. It helped so she wasn't so bored. I enjoyed the time I spent with both of them. It made me feel useful. So after all the help I gave to both of them, I started to look into Caregiving. It's a great career. To help others is great!

Hi my name is Viola and I'm a special education teacher. I work with children who have learning, mental, emotional, or physical disabilities. My passions are caring and teaching young children as well as the elderly. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, hiking, and horse back riding. I have always been the caregiver amongst my family and friends when care is needed. They say I have a special touch and that I should have chosen nursing as my career! I'm currently caring for my grandmother who has dementia. I also have experience caring for individuals post surgery, managing infections, COPD, cancer, diabetes, and amputations. Being that I am a teacher, I am on vacation during the summer and holidays. This gives me the flexibility to help other families care for their loved ones. I look forward to meeting you! Viola
