Leidy H.

I chose to be a caregiver because of my experience looking after my parents who have suffered heart attacks and strokes. I have also worked multiple careers primarily based on providing care and comfort to others. At the age of 34 I spent 5 years as a nanny to 3 different families. I was required to drive the children to and from school, make them breakfast and dinner, and provide overall care until their parents returned home. I then spent 10 years as an American Airlines flight attendant. My tasks included ensuring the safety, comfort, and enjoyment of each passenger. This would be done through multiple check ups, and constantly asking the passengers if they wanted anything, like food or beverages. My compassion for people has lead me to choosing a career in care giving. I genuinely love people and life and look on the bright side of things. I am honest and reliable and look forward to becoming great at my job. I intend to continually learn and grow.

I am attracted to being a caregiver because i enjoy working with people and most enjoy jobs where you have one-on-one interaction with others. Being a caregiver makes me do work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I don't ever say, "that's not my job" but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed and like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better.I do take pride in your attention to detail. My personal achievement that am proud of is having been selected as the best hard-working caregiver that works well in a team and is willing to learn at all times. I do feel that when am older, i'd want someone like myself there to help you if you need help
