I became a caregiver when my grandma became sick and she was not able to do things for herself so I step in and help her to the bathroom and helping to walk from one end to another just so she can be independent again and doing that time she did really well and was able to move on her own . What I like about being a caregiver is that you are helping someone and doing what you love to do, which I'm proud to say I love caring for the elderly. My name is Jartu Ngafua I'm 20 years old I have been in the care business for a long time I even when to a nursing program just so I can improve my skill right now I work at Victoria home care but at this moment I would love to work even more to help my family that are depending on me. So that is my caregiving history.
