At first when I worked as a caregiver I did not know that working with older couples or a wife or a husband would remind me of taking care of my own parents. That bond between me and them and the trust we had for each other. Working in their own homes is something I like, being on my own helping and giving my time for them is something that I like doing and CARING for them. I am a very good listener, very trustworthy and a biig heart. Most of my clients like me cause I am soo sweet and one of them called me Sweetie. Lol! The only sad thing about this caregiver job is when they left us ( passed away). We all gotta move on cause we are gonna die someday, but that bond between us and them will be forever in my hearts.
