- I became a caregiver because I left being a Payroll Manager for so many years and nurse my mother who had a kidney failure - I love being a caregiver because you are totally responsible for making independence decisions to care and carry all ADL yourself without being told how - My personal achievement would be when I had the opportunity to move all my family to the United States and become a caregiver - I am a positive kind hearted and loving female whose culture was surrounded by families and living and taking care of our own elderly parents was the only way. I have a loving husband and 5 children who are all grown young adults aging 19 to 26 years old. I belong and a member of the United Methodist church of Brea. I am currently working for Senior Helpers as a Caregiver working for 2 clients, and have been with them for over 5 years.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
