This would be the first time being a caregiver but I chose this career because I had two grandparents who passed away but were loved and cared for and I saw the way the caregivers were so concerned about only getting paid that they didn't pay much attention to them and that made me want to show that I can care for someone like I did for my grandparents. I'm 23 yrs old have a 2 yr old son and happily married. I did 3 yes of college majored in political science and I'm am self motivated, dedicated, and very caring when it comes to others.
