About Carer

I’m 58 years old and a happy, talkative person who gets on well with people. I have 35 years of experience in the care sector, working in different settings and with different service user groups including elderly people, people with dementia, and people with epilepsy.

I’ve worked as a senior carer and team leader and hold an NVQ Level 3. I’m trained to provide PEG feeding, tracheostomy care, stoma care, take bloods, and administer insulin.

I provide all types of care including short visits, enabling support, personal care, sitting services, waking nights and sleep-ins. I have very high standards and am committed to providing high-quality care.

My 35 years of experience means I’m comfortable working with people with different needs and conditions, and I enjoy the variety that comes with self-employed caring.

1. Mary is a lovely Lady who I've known for approximately 3 Years. She comes to help me at my caravan as I have mobility Issues and she cleans for me. She is pleasant, hard working and I trust her. We have a good rapport and get on well. I was very grateful to her for hanging some curtains for me as I wasn't able to do it myself. She's reliable, thorough and gets on with the job in hand. I think she would treat clients with respect, empathy and be aware of their Individual needs.
