I became a caregiver because it was a more positive experience connecting with a family and a person in need rather than a hospital environment. Helping people is my greatest joy in life and I believe creating a positive experience helps with any healing process. I have been a caregiver for about 5 years now and cared for over 15 different families through the South San Francisco and San Francisco area. It has been such an awarding experience for me. I am extremely understanding and patience is a strong suit of mine. My goal is to create not only a positive experience but also an helpful, comfortable, and exciting environment for the person in need.
