About Nikkita

I'm very empathetic and dedicated to my job as being a caregiver. At a young age I've developed the necessity to provide care to those who need it. The most I enjoy about being a caregiver is obtaining a well-rounded relationship between the client's friend or family member, the client themselves, and mine. What I enjoy the most is the appreciation I get from the client and their loved ones. One of the personal achievements I'm proud of is being calm, and knowing what to do in worst case scenarios.

I'm a great caregiver because I'm a very passionate person, I love to help people and making them feel comfortable knowing that there's someone that's care for them. The most important part of being a caregiver to me is the patients comfort and always seeing a smile on my patients face and knowing that I put that smile there. I became a caregiver because it's my natural instincts to care for people I just love doing it, I call it my weakness. One of my personal achievement I'm most proud of was getting into nursing school, it's a step closer to me getting to care more and taking care of people.
