My love and respect for the elderly started at a very early age with my relationship with my own grandparents. Through the years, my love for the elderly evolved into an outreach to a local nursing home where I would take my young children to visit regularly. I eventually became a full-time caregiver for my children's great grandmother. It was through this three year experience that I realized that it comes very natural for me to fulfill the role of a caregiver. I have a lot of love, patience, compassion and also the trustworthiness and dependability needed to meet the needs of someone in this season of their life. I have had the privilege of working with several families over the last two years as their primary caregiver. I find this type of work to be one of the most rewarding and fulfilling positions I have ever had. I treasure the relationships that I have built not only with the clients but their families as well and look forward to many more opportunities.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
