I became a caregiver because I'm compassionate and love helping people in every way. I knew i wanted to be a care giver a long time ago, I was hospitalized alot as a child. One day when i was in the hospital for over a week , my mother and father had to work. I was all alone when a kind man pulled up a chair to my hospital bed. He asked me how i was doing and did i want to play any games, of course i said i was fine and yes i did want to play games. He sat with me until his shift was over and played all of the games that we could play. I never forgot about it, it shaped my entire life. I love caregiving because of the rewarding smiles, the life changing experiences and the effects you could have on a person just by caring. I am proud of my children and going back to college to be a registered dietitian. I am originally from Philadelphia, I loving cooking, cleaning, hair, nails and skin upkeep. I volunteer anytime I have a chance I'm very sweet and happy. ... more
