I chose the career of caregiving because as a kid I met this amazing child who I called a brother who has autism. He he had fragile x also. So that started my mind on what I wanted to be, I really want to become an rn so that I can official take care of children like him. But before that I became a care giver at a private agency. I turned out to like it a lot more when I got to work with more than one person. What makes me a great caregiver is that j put my clients first no matter what is going on weather it's a one on one or if it's a 1-3 ratio , my clients Come first. I try to make everyone that I come in contact feel safe feel like they have someone to talk to.
