What makes me a good caregiver is that I am a caring and loving and reliable person. I wanted to become a caregiver because seeing my grandmother struggle with everyday things in life made me want to make sure she had the proper help she needed and what if there was someone else like her out there that needs help so I went out and got certified so that could help other with things they needed help with also. I like being a caregiver because when your done helping them with whatever they need help with they always say thank you and the smile that it puts on their face from still seeing that there's someone out there that still cares and would like to help them. One of my greatest personal achievement is having my twin boys in 2014 I'm very proud of that.
