Hello my name is Sarah and I am 18 years old, I started care giving when I was 15 at a nursing home that my mother was also working at as a nurse. I am super outgoing and caring towards my residents. I have a very upbeat personality. The thing that made me want to become a care giver is that mother has always been one. She started off as a CNA like me but now she is a Nurse. I have always wanted to follow in my mothers foot steps and as soon as I stepped into taking care of people I absolutely fell in love. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is making my residents happy and ensuring that they are getting the right care! I am proud to say that I received my CNA license during a summer year of high school while I was 16. I knew I wanted to go in this direction for my career so I decided that I would start young.
