About Carer

I’m a friendly, approachable person who’s motivated by making people’s lives better. I’m a mum to three children who keep me on my toes, and I’ve spent years supporting people through some of the hardest times in their lives, including end-of-life care.

I have a Level 3 in Adult Care and have worked with clients living with dementia, learning disabilities, and complex mental health needs, as well as with elderly people needing support to remain independent at home. I don’t have a particular type of care I focus on — I’ll get stuck into pretty much anything, and I take a person-centred approach to make sure the care I provide fits each person’s needs and preferences.

Alongside my care work, I like being outdoors on long walks with my dog, spending time with family, reading, and helping a friend on his farm.

References & Client Feedback

1. I have known Stef for 23 years as a friend and have been a work colleague within the last year also. Stef is incredibly trustworthy and reliable, she always goes above and beyond for her clients and family members. Stef is very compassionate, patient and uses effective communication skills to understand client needs. Stef is very punctual and works well both independently and as part of a team. No concerns.

2. Stef was part of a private care team supporting my mother in her own home. She was with us for approximately a year. I got to know her as her employer.

Stef was an excellent carer. My mother had quite a lot of psychosis and could be quite mean. Stef met her needs with unwavering compassion and kindness. She was trusted implicitly by the family and even attended nurses and doctor appointments with us.

Stef worked well within the team. She was very flexible and always keen to help. She is also very jolly and funny, which is invaluable in testing times. Anyone Stef looks after would be very lucky to have her support.
