I became a caregiver because I enjoy enriching the lives of others, and providing a positive and upbeat environment for my clients. I bring out the best in others. My motto is if people are feeling good and happy they treat people better.I am proud of the fact that since I have been a caregiver I have had clients who were severely depressed but after working with them and building a bond I was able to encourage them to see life worth living. Another one of my clients couldn't even walk or get out of bed. After developing a friendship she gain trust with me and allowed me to give her a shower. Not only that before long she was out of her wheel chair making her own bed and allowing only me to assist her with a shower, that was a proud moment for me. I believe the reason I would make a great caregiver is because I grew up in a home where my mother was a humanitarian, so we had all kinds of people in and out of our home. Also I have years of childcare experience so its in my blood to care for the lives of others. One of my goals is to provide my clients with the best care-giving experience they have ever had.
