I became a caregiver after graduating highschool because I wanted to get a job that actually meant something and I thought I'd make a big difference in this field. One thing I like about being a caregiver is I really like helping people who are in need it makes me feel good about myself that I can be there for someone who really appreciates what I am doing for them. One personal achievement that I am proud of is actually getting through the CNA class I decided to take because I wouldn't be where I am if it wasn't for that. One thing I can say about myself from what other people have told me is I am a diligent worker always considering others and that I can always make someone smile even when they are feeling really down
