Empathy with clients, care and patience with the elderly. Passion for the job and dedication to learn more and provide continuous love and support to clients. Caring for my grandmother fueled the passion and love I have to take care of the elderly. Growing old is not easy and often is lonely. My love stands from being there and putting a smile on their face any way I can. The most i enjoy about being a caregiver is the smile and appreciation I bring to my patients, listening to them and being there for them through this time. A personal achievement I am proud of is getting my own car and perseverance through obstacles in life and not giving up no matter how difficult the task.

I am honest, affectionate and will go beyond the call of duty to may my client happy. It gives me pleasure when my client is happy.

My name is Mya, and I would love to be your caregiver! I have been a Certified Nursing Assistant in Florida for the past 3 years and I am looking for a full time or even part time position starting as soon as possible. I currently live in Haines City. I absolutely love not only caring for the elderly but also helping with daily tasks and light house duties as well.

I also love pets as well so I would definitely not mind being around yours if you have any!

My name is Kayla Carmona. I am a 25 year old single mother. I have been an HHA/Caregiver since 2019 after giving birth to my son, Elias. Growing up, I was a member of Lighthouse Baptist Church. I volunteered there at their vocational bible summer camp for several years. I enjoy volunteering at the Port Charlotte Homeless Coalition as well. I receive gratitude from spending my free time helping others. You can say caring for others is in my blood.

I became a caregiver because I am a caring and compassionate person. I think that my greatness should be spread around for others to enjoy. I have a love for life and I'd like to help your loved one enjoy life and improve their quality of living. I like bringing happiness to others. I am a licensed CNA and Med Tech and I have a Bachlor's degree in Social Work. I am certified in CPR, Alzheimer's/ Dementia, Patient right's, Medical errors, Infection control, HIPPA, Domestic Violence and Medication Savvy. I look forward to speaking with you.

I enjoy taking care of people's needs of all ages. I am very compassionate, sincere and personable, and believe in treating others exactly the way I would want to be treated. I will go out of my way to make sure my client feels comfortable, and know that their needs will be taken care of whatever they may be. It truly gives me joy at the end of the shift to know that I helped somebody and my heart is full!

I became a caregiver because I plan to be a nurse. While working, I found that I really like working around and helping the elderly. I personally enjoy walking in on my shift and saying hello to many of them because the residents get happy when they are greeted by people.

I'm patient, friendly, calm, comforting, and most importantly, caring. I decided to retrain and work towards a career in elderly care, hospice care support, and end of life care after taking care of my great aunt when she was placed in hospice at 85 years old. I became her live-in caregiver until she passed away. My aunt never married nor did she have children. This made me think about other people in her position that perhaps did not have someone to support them or caregivers in a similar situation that might need help. My previous work life was in the biological sciences, which has been helpful towards gaining the certifications and trainings that I need for this line of work. I am a certified Home Health Aide (HHA) and am currently awaiting my state board exam date to become a licensed CNA (Certified Nurse Assistant). I plan to continue my studies and work towards an LPN degree. I have also recently become a certified End of Life Care Worker (Death Doula). This means that I am able to help clients draft their own "living will" (advanced care directives) and support them towards their end of life transition, including helping them to make difficult decisions in the now rather than leaving it to their families during a time of grieving. I enjoy taking care of people, advocating for them, and making sure they feel comforted and validated in their choices. I was raised in a family where elderly people live(d) well into their 90s and 100s, and growing up around my elders, I learned to respect and appreciate them. I'm proud that I have taken the steps to work towards a career like this one, and I hope to be able to support the elderly community and their families. Lastly, I am comfortable with all types of people; thus, I am also LGBTQIA+ elderly aware/supportive and plant-based diet friendly. Thank you for your time and consideration. Kind regards, Julia

Dear families; My name is Natasia. I have 2 wonderful children and currently have been a CNA for 7 years. I am dedicated, kind, and very detailed oriented in the jobs that I do. I became a CNA because my mom was a CNA, but mostly because my mom is not getting younger and she's going to need someone to take care of her later in life. In the years that I've been a caregiver, I've met so many different people from all around the world. So that's what I like about my job. I am a socialite and sometimes that's all is needed from me as a caregiver; companionship. At the end of the day, I go on knowing that I've done all that I can to satisfy my clients at least for that day. Seeing the smile on a person's face after knowing what they're going through and being the one to put it there makes a difference for me.

By showing both empathy and compassion trustworthy reliable caregivers by letting the person know that you Care about them of what you can do to help them . Being a caregiver is such an honor it's all about putting away your needs to assist others. Knowing that a smile on your face can bring joy and happiness to someone else is priceless. The moments when you can reflect back and see how you have helped someone is what caregiving is all about. The elderly has a wealth of knowledge that they love to share about life and their experiences. I enjoy their appreciation for you being their caregiver and they seem so grateful. I treat them the same way I would like to be treated and the way I would like my mother to be treated if she needed care. I got accepted from ten college

I am a great caregiver because I treat each person with care and humaneness. Ihave worked with persons with disabilities and have had person centered training as well as C N A certification. I take my job seriously and aim to care for clients respectively and responsibly.

I believe as a caregiver, one has to be concerned about the mental, emotional, psychological and physical health of his or her patient. What makes me a good caregiver is that I am not only there to provide a service, I also enjoy having conversations with my patients, which is a great way of keeping their minds occupied. I became a caregiver twenty years ago in order to support my family. However, I have since gone back to school and received an associate in psychology and is currently doing my bachelor's in the same field, which is also the thing I am most proud of.
