A kind and compassionate professional who will strive to maintain your independence and safety.
| Hi, I qualified from The University of Nottingham as a Physiotherapist in 2002, and I have a specialist interest and experience of elderly rehabilitation and falls prevention. Exercise is my passion and I get a lot of satisfaction from helping people to re-gain their confidence and independence in all tasks requiring mobility for daily living. However, I recognise when jobs have become overwhelming and I'm also happy to take over roles when they have become too much (making beds, washing, cleaning, emptying rubbish, pet care etc). I am currently taking a career break to look after my young family, but I am keen to support others who need help. My full CV and references can be provided when required.

A reliable, non-smoking, female caregiver.
| I have been here for 4 years now and have some cleaning clients for 90 year old ladies and I love it. I am a qualified hair stylist with a small number of clients in my home salon. But mostly helping my ladies. Each week I get lots of tasks done that they can no longer do in and around the house, such as cleaning, gardening, errands, phone calls and whatever else needs doing. Sometimes I will pick up prescriptions for them or milk and papers etc. I love not knowing what will be requested until I turn up.
