About Caitlin

I am a college student who has a big heart for helping others. When I'm working with the elderly I don't feel like I'm working. My job is enjoyable and has a purpose. I love the work I do everyday when I see how I make someone's life easier in so many ways just providing a helping hand. I'm very patient and kind which makes me work well with all different types of personalities. I've always wanted to do caregiving because it's the best way to help my elders. My elders have put so much into the world and they deserve the best of care in their time of need. My favorite thing about being a caregiver is getting to talk about the "old days" with my clients and hear stories that I could only imagine of. Just being a companion in general is really enjoyable for me in so many ways. I see myself doing this kind of work for a very long time. I can't see myself doing anything else with my life.

Growing up being the oldest of 6 siblings I had to be the caregiver due to my mother working long hours as a nurse. In my adult life I've had many jobs but no fulfillment until I started caring for others. I found my purpose and calling. I truly enjoy/ love being a caregiver it brings so much joy and self gratification. My mother played a big part of why I love being a caregiver. seeing the love, she gave, and the return love played a big roll. It feels good to know that I have gained a client trust as well as the assurance that I will take care of them. To see them smile or just help them through a rough day knowing that they can count on me is a great reward. I've had a client I had just started with ask me, is this just a job or do you care? I care about what I do. This is one of the biggest questions that a client or family member has when looking for a caregiver. Staying positive, going beyond the call of duty, compassionate, caring, outgoing, patience, etc. To have the opportunity to care for your loved one or self would be a privilege and a blessing.
