I have been a nanny for two years while going to school. "Patience and compassion are two of my strongest assets in this profession, in my opinion." I was once the sole nighttime caretaker of this older man. Whenever I am with him he would often forget that he had buzzed me in for the same issue before. He was suffering from memory loss and dementia. My compassion and patience earned the trust of his family. "They engaged me to provide personal care for them at home."I was able to utilize my problem-solving and communication abilities to help my client feel more at ease, and I recognized how critical those soft skills are to the job.
