I have always wanted to be a caregiver. Back home in Ghana, it was a dream and a reality of mine. I took care of my beloved grandparents at a young age and enjoyed doing it. I loved working and taking care of them and cherished all the life and cooking tips from them. I strongly believed it was what I was meant to do. When God allowed me to move to America, a family friend explained to me that I could take care of other people's grandparents. Ever since I have worked hard to satisfy the families and most importantly the elderly I've worked for.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
