I am a very loving caring and genuine with what I love to do. What attracted me to be a caregiver was my awesome mother. When I was younger she use to do in home care giving as well and had to bring me with her a few times to work and as I watched her work I kind of just fell in love with the role of being a caregiver. Taking time out of our days to help fulfill the needs or an elderly or disabled person really takes a lot and you have to have certain characteristics to fulfill those needs. I enjoy most about being a caregiver is being able to be apart of their everyday lives and being able to comfort and help them makes me proud of myself. A personal achievement I am proud of is having the ability to provide cares and be affectionate and be able to just simply be there for residents.
