My name is Paula and I have been a caregiver for a total of 5 years now. I began caregiving by taking care of my grandmother when she became ill. That is how I found my passion and knew I enjoyed caring for people. I am a very compassionate person and I treat every person I care for as if they are part of my family. I enjoy seeing the people I care for smile and laugh knowing I have made their day enjoyable, even if it just telling them a joke. A personal achievement I am proud of is going back to school and getting my nursing degree. I would not have it any other way.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
