I became a caregiver because I care about people and I like to help people that I could help. What I like about being a caregiver is that you help people and that's a good feeling to know you help someone no matter what you help them with. A personal achievement I'm proud of is helping others. Something about myself... Well, my name is Kiera Teague. I'm 19 years old, been dealing with my mother for almost 4 years before she passed away. She was sick and I had to help her bath, get dressed, run errands, did her laundry and everything else. I'll enjoy being a caregiver because I know what to do.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
