I became a Caregiver because I love caring for everyone, young and old. I have been doing that for 30 years plus. I have been some sort of a caregiver since I was a teenager. As a teenager I was the most sought after babysitter in my neighborhood. While I was a Sophomore in High school I took a health occupation class that was a 2 year long program taken at the local hospital. When I graduated I was a CNA and took a job at the Nursing home where I worked for a couple of years. I left due to starting my own family and becoming a stay at home mother. I am most proud of my 3 kids, 2 grandkids and my wonderful husband of 37 years.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
