my names makayla , i'm a caregiver . What makes me a great caregiver? I personal will say i treat my clients as if they're my family ! I became a caregiver because it something i personally love doing ! THERE are many things i love about my job but to be specific my bond &' getting to give others my help !

1. I feel that it is my gift and my calling, and I want to use my talents to bless others. 2. At the end of the day, I feel accomplished if I've helped those around me who need me to be there for them whether it be an emotional or physical need. 3. One of my biggest achievements and joys was being able to be there with both of my parents at the end of their lives to provide the loving care and meet their every need. Something I will always be proud of is the fact that neither of my parents had to be taken care of by anybody but their daughter. 4. I am a woman who loves to be with her family. I enjoy cooking, gardening, hiking and spending time with my daughters. I am always looking to learn new things because I have a strong belief that it's important to keep learning to stay young. One of my learning adventures included becoming a state certified ombudsman and using that talent to visit local nursing facilities. The more I spend time in these nursing homes, the more I want to help the elderly be able to stay in their homes and receive care in their own environment.

I became a cna because my great grandma who raised me became a diabetic and had to have both of her legs amputated. I was around 11or 12. She learned how to walk with new prostetics and her walker. Also I had to administer her insulin at times. She passed shortly after I turned 18. I dedicated my life to her.

I have been working as a care giver for more than seven years as a part time job I like it because I like to help people especially elderly people or those who are sick. I always like to be on time at work. I take a certified nurse Assistant training and studying in college.

hello! I was a certified nursing assistant for 6 years and then I wanted to switch to one on one care. I've been caring for a woman in her home for 2 years now and it's definitely where I needed to be! I love being that support and friend that she needs and I can't wait to experience more of that! Caring for elderly is a passion of mine, and between working at a nursing facility and in private care, I feel that being home is the best option for them. I pride myself on giving the best care that I can, so they can be home as long as possible and have a high quality of life. That's the best place for them to be and I love being a part of allowing that to happen [?]

I am native to San Jose, I am a 3rd generation born in San Jose. I have been in the medical field for 38yrs. 25 yrs just doing home care. Caring for the elderly and being an advocate for them has been in my heart for many years. I have enjoyed working with them and have been blessed to share many of their journeys. I have encountered hundreds of elderly over the years, and have learned much from them. As the years pass, I will continue to serve those who are sick, elderly, or are coming to an end of their own journey. All though I prefer a live-in position, I am also available for hourly work at this time, with a 6 to 8 hr. minimum a day. If you have any additional questions for me, please feel free to ask.

i became a caregiver because at a young age my grandfather passed away from cancer seeing the nurses and caregivers come and go helping him out made me want to return the same favor. i enjoy care giving because i get to hear stories from the past and i get to have a bond with the client and family as well but i have to keep professional. i also worked for schools as a teachers assistant working with students with disabilities so it encouraged me to look into care giving , and knowing that im giving back and helping the family out. my personal achievement im proud of is that i dont give up with what ever obstetrical comes my way and i keep moving forward. i enjoy being with my family and loved ones spending quality time together and just having fun. i enjoy cutting hair mens hair and im looking to get into barber school some time soon.
