Medical student with caring experience
| Hello! I am a Biomedical Science graduate from the University of Plymouth, currently pursuing postgraduate studies. I am seeking opportunities to provide care and companionship for more individuals. I have previous experience in elderly care, and I genuinely enjoy every moment of it. I find joy in listening to stories, cooking, cleaning, managing medications, assisting with hygiene, and ensuring happiness. My academic background gives me a solid understanding of diseases and medications, which is essential for maintaining the well-being and safety of those in my care. I am well-organized and attentive to detail, ensuring everything is in order for optimal care. I am a people person with experience in customer service, childcare, and volunteer work with individuals facing addiction challenges. I genuinely care about people, and my goal is to bring smiles and comfort to those I care for. While I do not currently have my own transportation, I am happy to accompany individuals through taxis if you are comfortable. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I am also available to meet for coffee or tea to get to know each other better. I look forward to the opportunity to meet and assist you. Thank you for considering my services!

Alice has been caring for my 88 year old mother for nearly a year now. Mum has mild dementia. She is dependable, caring, and has brought new perspectives to my mums life. She is an excellent cook, is quick to see what else can be done around the flat… washing, cleaning, putting the bin out!! She has been a real blessing, and I would whole heartedly recommend her to anyone who needs support with an older relative."

Kind, compassionate and personal care provider with over 10 years experience.
| I am deeply committed to providing compassionate and attentive support to individuals in need. With over 10 years of experience in different care settings, you or your loved one will be in highly capable hands. I hold multiple certificates of mandatory healthcare training and level 2 & 3 NVQ Diploma in Health & Social Care for adults in England. My journey in caregiving began with my own family, where my nan was diagnosed with cancer. I was often helping my mum caring for my nan with various daily tasks. These experiences have taught me the value of patience, empathy, and adaptability when working with individuals who require personalised care. I have developed a keen understanding of the importance of maintaining a person's dignity and independence while offering assistance in a respectful manner which I believe is extremely important.
