About Carer

I’m a dedicated carer with several years of experience providing personal care, companionship, home help and overnight support. I moved to the North East from London with my young daughter and I’m based in Longbenton.

I have a strong background in health and social care, counselling skills, and therapeutic communication. I’ve worked as a Personal Care Assistant and Care Assistant, and I hold certifications in first aid, mental health, and emergency care.

What I really value about being a self-employed carer is being able to provide personalized care and build proper relationships with clients and their families. I’ve supported clients with dementia, complex health conditions, and those needing palliative care – often as the main carer in intensive care packages.

I’m kind, reliable and trustworthy. I take a professional approach and stay calm whatever situation arises. I’m committed to helping people live independently in their own homes for as long as possible.

References & Client Feedback

1. Dayanna was the central player and primary carer in the 24/7 home care package we put in place for our Mum who suffers from advanced Vascular Dementia as well as a number of other health conditions including bowel cancer.She worked on average 4 to 5 days per week plus some overnight stays and quite frankly we could not have supported our Mum at home for as long as we did without Dayanna’s considerable help, support and experience.

Dayanna provided high levels of personal care, companionship and practical support for my Mum (and the rest of the family) for well over a year and right up until Mum’s inevitable and unavoidable move into a residential care home. Dayanna was incredibly kind and caring throughout. 100% reliable, trustworthy and punctual. Thoughtful and insightful with regards to Mum’s care and needs - regardless of the challenges of Mum’s various health conditions and changeable moods and behaviour. Dayanna managed any situation thrown her way with a professional approach and took everything in her stride.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Dayanna and would take this opportunity to formally register our immense gratitude for all that did for Mum and the rest of the family.

2. I’m happy to recommend Dayanna in her new role, Dayanna volunteered with the our organisation from August 2012-2014, she supported some of our most vulnerable clients who were homeless and had both mental health and physical issues. Dayanna is a compassionate and kind person as well as being very supportive to both the clients and staff, she is very calm and will go a mile to help those in need, she has the skills of working on her own as well as in a team.
