▶ Watch Intro

"I’m Nicole. I’ve been a carer for four years and I’m skilled in DIY, cooking, and arts and crafts. I enjoy birdwatching, visiting new places, and playing board games, among other activities. In the past, I have worked with individuals who required nebuliser, PEG, and tracheostomy care, as well as those with spinal injuries, learning disabilities, autism, catheter care, and dementia. I love attending training sessions, as they equip me with the knowledge I need to work in this sector. I have completed multiple moving and handling training sessions, as well as personal care and hoist training."

🏅 Top-Rated Local Carer

"Having started work as a carer at the age of 17, I have remained within the profession for more than 15 years, both in my personal life and in professional roles. I began working as a carer for an agency, supporting clients in their own homes while also supporting my brother, who has required significant assistance due to fluctuations in his mental health. I have worked in various settings throughout my career, including hospitals, nursing homes, the community, and have been employed by numerous companies. Over recent years, I have been registered as self-employed as a personal assistant, enabling and encouraging independence for clients with MS, as well as for a lady who had complex needs due to a brain tumour with secondary conditions such as autism, learning difficulties, and regular seizure activity. I worked in the ambulance service for more than 10 years in a managerial position, undertaking recruitment, validating expenses, and performing assurance checks. Alongside this role, I looked after family members, providing dementia care, end-of-life care, and supporting a family member who struggles to undertake activities of daily living due to COPD. Additionally, I am a Reiki and reflexology practitioner, providing treatments to patients with MS. I am a mature student at university, undertaking a degree in Occupational Therapy. I love to learn, improve my skills, and enjoy training in new areas. In my spare time, I have a very needy chihuahua who loves to spend time with me on walks or cuddled by my side. He is my little shadow and does not like sharing my attention with his other furry siblings (my cats). I am described as hardworking, attentive, and someone who always goes above and beyond. I love to solve problems and will always try to find a solution! Unfortunately, I do not cover overnight, live-in, or weekend shifts due to my current workload and personal commitments. However, I do have availability to cover some evenings and am happy to support with short-notice care. I have access to a vehicle that has business insurance. Please feel free to get in touch should you be interested in my availability as a carer. I look forward to hearing from you!"
