Hello, my name is Emily Cox and I'm a 25 year old whom is currently in college working towards my business degree. I like being a caregiver because I enjoy spending quality time with someone that I can help. I never feel like a "babysitter" when I help take care of a senior citizen. I find it as a blessing to be able to hear their stories and maybe learn a few things from them! I know when to entertain, and when to give them their peace. I also am strong enough to be able to help when it comes to heavy lifting. I have experienced people with alzheimers disease and dementia and know the proper skills when dealing it.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
