TN37 6RA 243122 Helping others is not only a responsibility of life; it is what gives meaning to life. The deepest satisfaction comes from the joy of knowing you've positively impacted someone's world. And for nearly a decade this is what I've been doing. I have experience within, mostly, all facets of care, and will gladly help with all aspects of personal care, medication, administrative tasks, household cleaning and cooking. I am 51 years old. Pardon, I meant young (bubbly, like to chat, have a laugh, and I absolutely love spending time with my grandkids. I could also very easily get lost in a book or a well written essay and take pleasure in enjoying a well made cuppa. More, I take my job seriously and I know it inside-out. A pivotal turning point happened when my husband passed away, and made me more passionate. There simply is nothing I'd rather do than care for others. I'm qualified and trained to cater to a whole range of needs and so, for a personalised care plan please get in touch first and I'll reply as soon as I can. 0 1 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":false,"field_care_type_first":"","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":false,"field_care_type_second":"","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"1","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"1","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"1"}

TN380BP 12407 I’ve worked as a carer for over 10 years. I have found it a rewarding and enriching experience. It has given me a lot as a career. I have a high level of professionalism and consider my integrity an essential part of what I bring to the table as a carer. I have received much support and encouragement from both clients and employers, but the most satisfying validation was one I received recently from my manager who told me that if they could clone me, they would. That being said, it certainly hasn’t gone to my head and I won’t be resting on my laurels any time soon. I think compassion is enormously important in a carer, as well as honesty, the ability to listen also a good sense of humour will never go amiss. I’ve done quite a lot of complex care, an happy to double up in 2 carer jobs, also fine with pets and resident family members. I am discreet when there are other people besides the client living in the house and attempt as best as possible not to encroach on peoples’ space and relationships. I like cooking (I’m a vegan but I’m happy to cook non- vegan food) and am a voracious reader, I play acoustic guitar, enjoy many types of music, worked in a pottery studio and several antique shops and galleries to support myself through university and like a bit of gardening, I grew up in a family of artists and appreciate aesthetics greatly. I’m a little quirky- I have blue hair- but fundamentally I’m pretty old fashioned and appreciate the gentler, less brash manners of days gone by. I’m an all year round sea swimmer. I was born in South Africa and like to return annually. I think some people are at their best when they are being of service to others, the older I get, the more I understand that I am one of these people. 2 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"3","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"3","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"3"}

When I moved to UK I missed working in care sector and my friend recommended to try community care which I loved then I had an opportunity to work as a support worker with adults with physical and learning disabilities which I deeply enjoyed but as I like to move around I realized I needed to do something different so just before lockdown I became a live in carer and ended up having a few private live in clients. I have been a support worker/community carer/live in carer for the past 5 years. {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"0","field_care_type_first":"0","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"0","field_care_type_second":"0","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"0","field_care_type_third":"0","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"0","field_care_type_fourth":"0","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"0","field_care_type_fifth":"0","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":"1","field_care_type_sixth":"1,4","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":"1","field_care_type_seven":"1,4"}

BN22 8AB 66650 I shall be available in the East Sussex area as I am moving back to Eastbourne in early May. I am a Companion/Carer/Housekeeper and enjoy working with my clients and see myself as their 'enabler'. I feel rewarded when I have enabled my client to live a full and happy life. My background involved caring for many family members who lived with chronic health issues. My career was mainly in administration (in the NHS and Social Services) and I also gained a degree in my late 30s. I am also a qualified TESOL (Teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages). I decided on a change of career six years ago as I considered I had the life skills and experience to offer support to elderly clients and their families. Some of my clients were all living with Alzheimer's. This environment can be demanding and challenging, but with empathy, resourcefulness and common sense I have succeeded in creating a calm environment for them to flourish within. Through an Alzheimer's Awareness course and extensive reading I continue to increase my knowledge regarding this condition. Above all, I would say I am continuingly learning from my clients. Everything I do is completely 'client centred' with the aim of maintaining dignity, agency and independence. I demonstrate initiative, am organised and reliable and like to think I have a warm and friendly nature. I work well within an integrated 'team', which usually consists of family members and health professionals. I am a competent cook and can adapt to any specific dietary requirements. In my spare time I enjoy writing (mainly short stories and poetry) and I have a great love of history, architecture and natural history (I am a member of the National Trust). I have good listening, communication and observational skills and I am well travelled. 1 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"1","field_care_type_first":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"1","field_care_type_second":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"1","field_care_type_third":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"1","field_care_type_fourth":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"1","field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":"0","field_care_type_sixth":null,"field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":"0","field_care_type_seven":null}
