I became a caregiver because I have always enjoyed helping people out especially the elderly just to see a smile on someone's face will automatically make my day I have been a caregiver for 12 years and it is the most rewarding job I've had so far. Some of the things I like in being a caregiver is helping someone out with some of the things that they cant do for themselves anymore, and seeing a smile on someone's face is the most rewarding thing out of my day. A personal achievement for me that I am proud of is being able to have a job that I am proud of. Something about me is that I have two children my daughter is going to school to become a pediatrician and my son is about to graduate from high school.
