My name is Tekeyhia Smiley. I have been a caregiver for 4 years now. The thing that made me become a caregiver is when I was younger I use to always see my great aunts help my great grandmother they use to cook for her clean for her and clean her she loved them so much just because they was there when she needed them most and seeing that I always said I wanted to be care giver because I have the heart for it I love my ederly people they teach you a lot of things that you need to know in the younger generation. The ederly made the person I am today I love them so much.
