    I was a nanny before I start to become a caregiver. Someone ask me if I wanted to have a part time job as a reliever, doing private duty. Since then I worked as a caregiver from different agencies; doing private duties to becoming a certified hospice CNA. I am a hard worker, reliable, with lots of initiative and patience to take care of my clients. I love my job because theres a great satisfaction and fulfillment to know that you made a difference not only to your client but also their family.
