As a compassionate caregiver who considers it a privilege to be trusted to look after the needy clients, I am able to work effectively with others in a demanding job and have a natural ability to help make the lives of others more fulfilling. Being caring and compassionate is at the heart of everything that I do and am interested in working in an n environment where the work can be challenging, but also fun and rewarding. I have received frequent recommendations from clients and families for compassion, efficiency, and time management. Praised for patience and problem-solving, I have therefore consider myself a perfect candidate to fill any Caregiving open space .
