I would like to introduce myself as a candidate for the child Caregiver position. As a highly empathetic and caring individual, I am confident that I can succeed as a Caregiver.
During my teenage years, I served as a primary caregiver for my grandmother. As a frail woman in her late 80s, she needed a lot of assistance with most day-to-day functions. Since I was there more than my parents, who both worked full-time, I took it upon myself to be her caregiver. The more time I spent with her, the more I realized that although her body may not function, her mind was an ocean of stories and wisdom, waiting to be explored. I will always cherish the time I had with her and the things she taught me.
