Hi! My name is Sage, it throws a lot of people off that I'm young and a caregiver, but I do it out of the love in my heart. I'm a great listener and really love to be around older folks as I think they are some of the best people I've ever met and love to engage in conversation with them. They've done there hard work and deserve to be taken care of with the utmost care and respect and maybe make a friendship out of it. I first decided to get into caregiving after I had to with my own grandmother. I saw how horribly she was treated in a home and hospital so we brought her home and continued care there, it was one of the hardest yet most beautiful things I had ever done and wanted to continue that and ensure everyone is cared for like family.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
