    I am a kind, empathetic, and patient caregiver, who loves to support others and make life as enjoyable as possible for those I care for. I am very aware, dependable, and punctual. Care giving gives me deep satisfaction, knowing that there is someone in need and that I have the tools necessary to accommodate them, gives me a sense of purpose. My best achievement is becoming proficient in sign language. I've broken a communication barrier that allows me to hear people that can't necessarily use their voice! It is extremely rewarding !
