What attracted you to being a caregiver? I love to help others and I feel that everyone needs a extra set of hands. We are all human and sometimes it takes a tribe. What do you enjoy the best about being a caregiver? I love helping people and making people smile whether it's giving advice or just being there and helping them whatever they may need. I can cook, clean, help with bathing, meds and much more. I am a good listener and I have a lot of empathy for others. I understand too that everyone has or is going through things that we may not know about and you just have to be kind and try to be a friend, a shoulder or just help them.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
