I became a caregiver while I was pregnant with my daughter. I've done it part time since I've had her, for family and friends. At first it was just a job and I had no idea that I would enjoy it. I fell in love with my job, which didn't feel as if it were a job because I fell in love with the people I met. Not only was I able to help each one, but they also taught me. My greatest achievement is my daughter, who is my life, and I want to make sure I'm always able to provide for her.
