Although, I've never had a caregiver job I have watched my baby sister and cousin since they were born and know how to care for another person. I have learned a lot of skills that qualify me for this job such as cooking, cleaning, and being able to conduct a vehicle. This job attracts me because I've never been incapable to care for myself and if I can make an impact and be helpful to someone else I'll definitely take it. A personal achievement I am proud of is that the past couple of months I have been bettering myself through eating healthier and exercise it may not seem much, but its helped me view life differently.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
