This would be my first job being a caregiver except I do have to grown kids that I think I did pretty well with! I would be a great caregiver for the elderly not only because I have a grandpa that is 101 that I love very much, but because I enjoy being around elderly people to gain the knowledge they have and to help them do the things they need help with now that they cant achieve. I have a bubbly personality and love to help people! I also have went to vo-tech and completed a child care program with also disabled children and downsyndome .
