I became a caregiver because I love to help people. I went to college and got a bachelor's degree in psychology. I love talking to people and working with them. I am in the process of getting my CNA license. I will still help people but will be able to have more duties. I like that I can make my own hours and have a flexible schedule. I am a very patient woman with a great amount of empathy. I am proud that I achieved my bachelor's degree while raising three children and working 2 jobs. I am a very hard worker. I now have 7 grandchildren and 5 live near me so I thoroughly enjoy spending time with them.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
