Jenna’s care at home, Encouraging independence where possible and company with a smile
| My name is Jenna, I am 36 years young. My friends and family would describe me as friendly, approachable, honest and reliable. I’m that person that always wears a smile. I found my love for care when working within special needs in children, specialising in complex behavioural needs- here I spent 6 years learning and building my skill set- I moved to Dorset 1 year ago - I began working with adults who had learning difficulties. I was offered a job, to look after an elderly gentleman with advancing dementia with challenging behaviour, I fit in very well with the existing team and although the gentleman didn’t remember me I was more than happy to re-introduce myself everyday! I had worked with this gentleman full time for over a year and supported every challenge he presented until his recent passing, alongside this client I also currently look after a 98year old lady, also with advancing dementia and challenging behaviour. I am knowledgeable in how to treat people with respect and as individuals, to promote their independence, this is a very important aspect for me while providing care. If you think I’d be a match for your loved one or someone you know! Get in touch! *DBS checked & fully insured* *care certificate*

Very nice Lady, very helpful, excellent work and very friendly. My garden ws overgrown and I, having fibro myalgia, was not able to clean it up. She did an excellent job in clearing it and bagging thew waste up in a very efficient manner. She also helped me with housework that has piled up on me, and made things easier to find. I would recommend her without hesitation."
