I've recently had a job in this field and i really enjoyed it. Working with mentally disabled really made my day. Everyday i would come to work looking forward for that day. I became a care giver because what better way to enjoy work than with others. What i loved about being a care giver was the art activities we would do when the holidays came, watching the clients make cards for his/her loved ones it was really heart warming.I'm proud that i got the trust of my client at first he was leading me everywhere, making him trust me was a big accomplishment in my eyes as well as others. I'm 19 years old trying to work day time and go to school night time shifts, i would love to be the most available during the weekends.
