I became a caregiver because I have elderly family members and friends who need care. They sometimes can't do things themselves and I help them when I'm close to them. Also when I was growing up I've always been wanting to be a nurse doesn't matter what kind of nurse, but all I love to do is help people. I think what helps me be a more helpful caregiver is that I always try different things or methods to help the person understands what to do.

I am very passionate about the patients I care for. I make sure that all of their needs are met to the best of my ability. I became a caregiver because I have a heart to serve people. I love tending to people's needs and assisting them in anyway possible. I enjoy being that extra companion and help that a person needs when they are no longer able to care for themselves. My main goal is bringing joy into their lives and being able to interact with them on a personal level, as well as providing them with professional care. I am currently enrolled in a community college with dreams of becoming a Pediatric Oncologist. A personal achievement that I am most proud of was my trip to Belize, in Central America, where I was an intern for six months at an orphanage. Overall, I have a passion for serving people and their needs.

Families hire me to make this part of their life cycle memorable and fun. We go places, reminisce and participate in life's journey, gracefully. I especially enjoy serving patient's unique physical, emotional, and social needs related to their cultural preferences which make the individual feel acknowledged and special. I earned my CNA, HHA at Allan Hancock College and LVN at Cuesta College after Majoring in Psychology at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo. What they say: "Engaging Licensed Vocational Nurse with a demonstrated track record earning, the National Humana Healthcare Nursing Award of Excellence" (2016). CARES Certified by the Alzheimer's Association in accordance with the Dementia Care for Geriatrics. What my patients say, "Don't ever forget me."

Since I was a little child I was taught to respect and provide special care and attention to older people. Mainly, I was raised by my grandmother whom I always called "Mama". I always enjoyed her company and was happy to take care of her. Therefore being around older people and making them happy gives a great pleasure to me. People call me a kind, honest, highly responsible, and hard working person, who keeps her heart open for everyone! Per your request, I'll be happy to show my CA Registration Number as a Home Health Aid, background check, liability insurance, bounding, and Caregiving Academy Certificate of training. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me directly at 805-709-2187. Thank you.

I am a very sweet and caring person. I have always been that way. I am the type of person who always wants to help and see other happy. I have always wanted a job with children or taking care and helping others so that's why caregiving is a great job for me. I enjoy seeing that my student or client is getting the help, nurturing and joy they deserve. I'm proud of achieving multiple jobs while going to school. At one point I was a caregiver for an elderly man, a babysitter for young children, a primary instructor for children 4-18 with math and reading and a cheerleading coach for young children and junior high while attending school.

I am a caregiver because being a caregiver is the most fulfilling job in the world. It is better to give back to the community and care for those around you.

Hello, my name is Elizabeth and i am 24 years old. I an married and have two children, Joseph and Jasmine. I started caregiving at age 19 and am really enjoying being a caregiver. My love for helping others and caregiving started as a little girl, i would watch my mom who has been a caregiver for 30+ years and knew that i wanted to be just like her. I love to help people and the satisfaction i get is, knowing that i'm making a difference in someone's life and helping them to be as independant as possible while giving quality care and some confidence back to them. I feel as though my years of experience and learning from other great caregivers, CNA's and nuses have helped shape me into who i am today. I am currently in the CNA program and am working towards obtaining my license to better help more people in the future. My ultimate goal is to become a RN and make my family proud. I hope that i can help your loved one by giving them the care that they deserve, during a difficult part of their lives. My strive is for them to feel as though they are not alone and help your family not feel so overwhelmed and stressed! I hope i can be that difference for your family.

To me it is humanitarian and compassion so i will know what will happen to me in my old age. its really fun taking care of them you can see thier daily modes esp. the emotion the either happy or sad. it changes every day and that you will learn the aspects of caregiving.

I believe what makes me a great caregiver is that, I treat the ones I care for as if they are my family. I look at them as if that is my Mother, Father, or Grandparent .I started as a young girl always wanting to care for my grandparents .As I became am adult it is still with me .I've cared for both my parents as they were extremely sick until my father passed. Knowing I was the one to care for him to give him all his needs is a priceless feeling. It brings me joy knowing I am the one to care for their needs, make them laugh, or just sit right next to them knowing I am right there for them. Just to see smiles on their faces is priceless.

I have previously worked as a Certified Nurse Assistant, I understand the needs of our Seniors and can provide care and comfort.
