Jenny Lucy N.

I work for a school Monday-Friday as a teacher assistant with the special education program. I have experience working with the elders. I worked as a activity assistant for almost 2yrs. I'm single mom with three daughters. I am bilingual English/Spanish.

Some expertise that helps me be a great care giver is experience, I've worked in facilities, home care and memory care when it comes to caregiving. Over the years I've learned a lot of techniques and different ways to do things that will help the person I'm taking care of/ assisting in the most comfortable way for them. What attracted me to become a caregiver is caring for people who can't care for them selves, whether it be someone who is injured, someone who's in recovery, someone who can't walk, someone who can't talk and do things for their selves. I was attracted to caregiving because I get to help the person with what they need and hopefully help them recover or just give them good memories and go further in life with the best days and many days after. What I enjoy the most about caregiving is knowing every day I'm going to help someone through their day and make it as fun, easy and comfortable as possible. I get to help them with their daily activities and possibly put a smile on their face as I help them. I get to grow a bond with the person I'm caring for and help them look forward to every day that comes next. I enjoy caregiving because as a mother it's just a natural instinct to want the best for the person and help them with whatever needs they need no matter what it is. I enjoy caregiving because it puts smile on my face, makes me happy and it's truly something I enjoy and I want to continue. My personal achievement that I'm proud of is helping someone achieve their goals because then I have achieved mine. My whole achievement is helping someone with whatever they need help with. Even if theirs a little bump in the road that delays the process as long as it gets done I am proud of it.
