I became a caregiver one because I like helping people that cannot help them self and that I am a giver. What I like about being a caregiver is being able to help people and getting to know people. When my Grandmother and Grandfather were living I was there for them day in night. They were like my best friends, just the smile I would put on there face's when they would see me it was priceless. I am 35yr old with 3 kids with one in college. I have work in home care for a year for my grandparents. Then I went back to school, now I am working in security but I am ready to give back and help other people that may need my help. See I am a family person, I love to make people smile I'm a team player I like helping people when they need my help I don't like to see people down so I do what I can to pick them back up. My mom say that I always put other people before me I have always been that way. I will give the close off my back If I had to.
