My name is Hillary, I am 25 years old, and live in Newport Beach, CA. I have been a nanny/babysitter for years and was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to be a caregiver for a 90 year old woman for the past 7 months and found it to be equally rewarding and meaningful. I like being a caregiver because it provides the opportunity to make a difference and brighten someone's day, to make them feel special and cared about, and it leaves a lasting feeling of accomplishment. I am proud of my work and am confident in my ability to connect and form bonds with others, particularly in caregiving situations. I enjoy outdoor activities, love reading, and have a dog that I adore. I am outgoing, kind, responsible, and look forward to continuing to work in the caregiving field.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
