I was a caregiver a year ago and I would like to work full time in this position. I enjoy helping others that are unable to care for themselves. I became interested in this type of position when my own mother became ill and required care. I was unable to care for my mother due to having a newborn baby at the time. I saw what good care was provided to her when she needed it and how all of her needs were met. My mother did not want or need for anything. She was well provide for and it helped all members of her family have the peace of mind knowing mother was in good hands.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
