I have been a caregiver from the age of 8, its what i do. I am can say I am great at it.I have taken care of many family members growing up, as well as friends and neighbors. In 2007an the collapse of the housing market an close of my business as well as my freedom to come & go as needed in 2009 unhappy with my life & job an I became a CHHA & 2012 CNA. I realize I love taking care of people& it makes me feel good and very productive, in New York I was working 2 jobs 8 hour shifts, i didnt mind the lack of sleep I was having a lot of fun. I was sad when I had to say goodbye to everyone as were they. I always have a smile & a positive attitude no matter what the task. Dont mind pets.
