I have worked in law-enforcement on patrol for 15 years. I gave it up six years ago and went part time to stay home with my children. Most agencies I worked for had a volunteer first(medical) responders so I was most likely the first one there and I felt I was helpful. My biggest accomplishment has been staying home with my two children. I also recently lost my father, Taking care of him and his illness for two years I would also consider an accomplishment. It would give me great satisfaction to be a caregiver and I believe I am a loving and caring person to be able to help a loved one take care of their, loved one. My children are now in school full-time and I have the time and ambition.
