    What makes me a great Caregiver is that I am a caring, empathetic and compassionate person who takes great care of my patients. I see each individual as an an opportunity to help someone. I have always been a caring person, who would take care of others no matter who. I've never been one to see others who are having a hard time or are in need of assistance and not try to help in some way. My friends say it's because I have a soft, caring heart.

    The reason why I wanted to be a caregiver is because when I was a little girl; there was an elderly lady that lived down the street from me who had know one to help her at all. I would go sit with her and run errands for her just because that's what God wanted me to do, and I enjoyed it. I knew one day that I would do the same for others, who just needed a helping hand. I truly enjoy helping others and being a part of a support system for them as well. Now, on the other hand I take pride in what I do and I treat my clients like family; not like just another paycheck to collect. I'm honest and hard working, very diligent in providing the proper care that's needed. Also, being reliable is something I take very seriously because that person is counting on me to be there on time. If you want someone who is professional but kind, gets tasks done in a timely fashion, and is dependable then I feel that I am a great candidate. Thank you
