Hello my name is Tinikia Lacy! Being a caregiver can be very challenging at times. When working some of my main skills in this field consists of hard work, organization, communication, patience, time-management, and passion for what I am doing. Since I was younger I've always helped others. To be able to put smiles on other people faces and make their day makes me feel good about myself. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is that I get to meet new people! I'm very social and meeting new residents or clients and getting to know them and getting to make memories with them is a wonderful feeling. A personal achievement I am proud of is myself. I am a Full-time college student, full-time mother and I work full-time so with that being said I am very proud of myself and how much I've grown.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
