We are so excited to announce that this month's outstanding CAREGiver is Kaitlyn.
At only 15, Kaitlyn started caregiving for her great grandmother. Her passion for serving others grew and she eventually joined the Home Instead family in January 2020 with the Long Beach office. Shortly after she moved to North San Diego County and transferred to our Vista Office.
Kaitlyn shares, “When I found Home Instead and decided that I wanted to be a caregiver, I had been looking for a job that had something to do with my goal of becoming a social worker. My motivation was always to help people in need.” And she does that daily with our clients.
What she loves most about being a CAREGiver is hearing the stories and memories of clients. Giving them an opportunity to share what they enjoy brings such light to their faces and their spirits.
One of the things Kaitlyn appreciates about her Home Instead family is the office team. They are a very “tight knit” group who work hard to ensure that CAREGivers are comfortable, and shifts are going smoothly.
Ultimately, Kaitlyn would like to become a foster parent. She wants to be able to give people an easier and happier future who may not be given the opportunity otherwise. When asked what is one thing she wants people to know about her the answer was, “I’d like people to know that I am very passionate about what I do!” Her heart for people is exactly why she is our CAREGiver of the month.
