I have a great personality and I think I could be a great caregiver. I use to drive my grandmother around and take her shopping. I use to drive older people around for their doctor appointments. What has really made me want to be a caregiver is because I miss my granny and I see a lot of older people that need help. This lady came into my job the other day and didn't know where to go and pay her bill. I got her name and called the place where she was suppose to go and they knew her. I was overjoyed to help her. My most greatest achievement is always being to work on time and doing my job.
