Hello, I have been doing this since I can remember at a very young age. It first started with learning from my mother and aiding in my grandmother's care to going with my mother to her client's homes as a caregiver and getting hands-on experience. I soon then applied to a nursing senior home and gained more experience as well as with agencies. I've done pretty much every bit in caregiving that you can think of. I love to meet people, to bond with them, and make a difference in their lives with small amounts of happiness at a time to make their day or to make them feel whole. Some don't always get the care and love that they need to receive and I love to step in to fill those gaps in for clients. I have always gone above and beyond not just because, but because I passionately love being a caregiver. There's a huge reward in caring for a person in what their needs are.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
