I became a caregiver because, I enjoy helping people.I get a great joy from aiding in the independace of the elderly. I feel it prolongs their life, if they can continue to be at home and doing the routines they normally do without having to be moved to a strange place.I have been caring for people since I was 8 years old. I have started my own private sitting business .I've been in this business for over 30 years professionally.I felt as though I was born to take care of people and is my calling. I also feel that you can learn a lot from the elderly from their life experiences
