What made me become a caregiver actually I've been doing caregiving jobs for a long time. I did 7 years of daycare and then after that I've been working in the MRDD field been a DSP caring for people with disability. I been there for 5 years & still present at that job. The last two years I've been working as a home health aide I actually love being a caregiver for all different type of Ages and all different type of people I love to hear people life stories and see what makes them smile and happy and a little bit of my little story along with it.
