I became a caregiver much longer before I was 19 and it was considered"my job". Ive always loved taking care of people and making sure they were happy, content, and comfortable. I can be very social at times, which helps out weigh my shy and timid side. I treat my clients as if they were my own family, meaning they are treated with the best type of care, attitude, and respect just like id expect my family to be treated with in a similar situation. I always place myself in their shoes during certain situations to understand more on their level: like their mood swings, attitude changes, pain level, etc.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
