Hello! I am a 22-year old college student who is studying at Eastern Michigan University to become a social worker. I only recently have joined the healthcare field - 2 1/2 years ago. I currently work with children that have autism and have learned that not only am I passionate about helping others with daily living, but I am very passionate about building strong relationships. Being around people and meeting new people brings me a lot of energy and joy. I think that I make a good caregiver because I value my relationships with clients and always want to keep them comfortable and make sure they know that I am there to support them in any way they may need.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
