Being a caregiver is one of the good decisions of my life, since I cared for my mom till she passed, I found compassion in caring for people to feel better, which then again gives me certain type of happiness. The fact that I put smiles on the faces of people makes being a caregiver a pleasant one to be. The most greatest achievement I have obtained during my service is trust, and I am proud to say so, because without trust what is the purpose of being a caregiver. I am a 34yrs with kids , and lots of experience as a caregiver. I can say so because I have been in this business for 12 yrs, and I have numerous reference to provide if needed.

I'm a great caregiver because I have passion for the patients I take care of and I always seek to provide my best services and companionship to them. I have always have the passion of taking care of people, and I love taking care of the people who needs my help by providing needed health services for them. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the feeling of gratitude from my patients and being able to help them in times of needs. Personal achievement I am proud is getting my home health Aide licence in other to fulfil my passion as being the best caregiver possible.
