First I am a mother of four so being a caregiver is just a natural instinct to me. I been taking care of mentally challenged individuals for over 15 years now. What I love about being a caregiver is just knowing I'm making a difference in someone's life helping them live a comfortable life. I love seeing my clients happy. The one personal achievement that I am proud of that may sound small but with this individual it was a health concern of mines he ate his meals really fast all the time what I did day by day was sat with him while he ate and prompt him to eat slower with every bite he took it took some time but now he eats slower and enjoys the taste of his food.
