I'm kind, trustworthy, and dependable, which helps me provide compassionate care. I've cared for my grandmother during her illness, which inspired me to become a caregiver because I want to help people who can't fully care for themselves. In African culture, caregiving is very important to us. When our parents and grandparents grow older and return home, we care for them with love and respect. I truly love being a caregiver it's a way of honoring those who cared for us. What I enjoy most is listening to the unique stories of those I care for it makes the work meaningful. A personal achievement I'm proud of is balancing life responsibilities with school, which has taught me discipline and resilience.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
