Where to start?! I grew up in a house of pretty much ALL females. I have 4 sisters (me being the oldest) who gave me the opportunities to learn about home care. I have been caring for them since I was about 8 years old. I have had practice with home care and proper communcation through them. Eventually I was able to learn more skills like customer service to my everyday life. I have had experience with sick/disabled family members for periods of time. I am very dependable and great with children. Having this experience with children and unfortunate situations with sick family members helped strengthen my knowledge with caregiving. The idea of just being able to help someone in need attracted my attention to be a caregiver. I am personally proud of myself for seeing how well my sisters came out to be. They are beyond helpful and so cheerful. They are my reflection.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
