Caregiving gives me sense of accomplishment in as where I can truly contribute to the well being and comfort of a client. I enjoy day to day contact and adapt to my client's needs and wellness. It may sound old fashioned, but I enjoy the art of crochet, making gifts for friends and family. I once won the 1st place Blue Ribbon and Best Of Show at our local County Fair. I am the proud mother of 2 adult children, including 2 teen grandsons. I adore my 2 Maltese/Poodle mix dogs. Up until recently, I was employed at our fifth generation, community centered, 48 year old family bakery, located in SF's historic Mission District. Sadly, my mother retired at the age of 80.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
