I don't know what makes me a great caregiver. I do know I love caring for people in general. I work at a Day care for five year caring for little people. Being in the field of daycare made me realize I like taking care are people in general to where I would like to take care of others like my grandfather and Grandma. I feel like taking care of elderly people you should take care of them like your family. With the other way there is not a dull moment and that's why I love being a caregiver. Everyday is a learning experience. And in this field I can't pass that up. My model is love them like family. The only reason I say that because I do not want someone to teat my grandmother or grandfather just anyway but with love. I guess that is what makes me a good caregiver just loving people.
