$15.00/hour · Brunswick, OH
I decided I wanted to care for others when my mom became sick and started having medical problems. I then assisted her with care, and monitoring medications etc. This motivated me to want to care for others and help do things they are unable to do. The thing I love about being a caregiver is making people happy which makes me happy about what I do. Something I am proud of is taking the extra steps needed in furthering my career and education and reaching goals I set for myself. I am a fun loving person that goes the extra mile and puts my mind into whatever I do.
