About Joanna

What makes me a great caregiver is ,that I just don't go and do my job I go and do what I love doing helping people that need help in daily life duties. Why and how I became a care giver I was in high school and on my weekends I was carrying for one of my neighbors. She needed someone to care for her.She didn't have daughters that live close by she was always by herself and she asked my mom if I could come over and care for her and help her out so I did and from there I knew that was my career. What I love about being a caregiver is that you learn a lot from your clients you care for they tell you when they were young, just journeys that they had in their life. My achievement that I'm most proud of is that my clients know that I'm there for them as a friend not just a caregiver. One day my client called me she felt very scare she was having chest and she didn't have nobody at home that day, I was off and I came home to be with her she fell save. I went above and beyond like she says what and a lot of people do. Looking for who I can care for , 8hrs + a day. (PAY RATE CAN BE NEGOTIABLE )
