The love I have for people whom can't help themselves what has help me to be a great caregiver from working in daycares to working in private homes with other love ones. What attracted me to being a caregiver is my family gave care for years I watched my mother work in nursing homes to private duty nursing as a little girl growing up to have a heart. What I enjoy the most about caregiving is seeing a smile on there face just to know a stranger can care so much. I achieved a heart for people. I achieve growth in the company I work for also I went from working in the homes to working in the office. I was so proud of myself

I love be a help to others especially our seniors who have sacrifice and paved the way for this generation. I believe it is our duty to give back to those who spent their lifetime helping others. I have so much respect for our seniors and believe they deserve to live the rest of their days feeling loved and appreciated. I have dedicated my life and time in making sure I pay my respects to those who can no longer help themselves due to old age or otherwise.
