I started working in the care industry doing domiciliary care in 2003 and then went back into office work again for a number of years. Between 2019 - 2021 I provided personal care and support within a care home including catheter & stoma care for residents that was suited to their individual needs and preferences, along with assisting with meals and refreshments throughout the day and logging all aspects of the care and support given. I then had the opportunity to work closely with two young adults within their own homes. Supporting a young lady with ASD and the other with Cerebral palsy, providing care and support for a few months with each of them and taking them out for activity days, which has been very rewarding. I spent a wonderful two years caring for a very elderly gentleman, as his companion, as well as all aspects of personal care, cleaning, washing, shopping, cooking, medication, appointments, and household utility paperwork and banking for him. I then spent a year caring for a family member. Most recently I have been supporting a lady with LBD and another with accident rehabilitation. I enjoy music, reading, caravanning and spending quality time with my family and friends. Please feel free to get in touch with me if you think I can be of help to you.

Excellent

Helen was with my mentally & physically daughter for 6 months. She dealt with incontinence, wheel chairs & often difficult issues with my D. She was always punctual, did her time & it was always with a laugh & a smile. I would highly recommend Helen with clients. She also helped me enormously by giving me a break when she was on shift.

Helen has been an amazing support to my Father for the last 2 years! She is compassionate, kind and professional! Unfortunately I am having to have full time care for him now, Helen is sadly not able to do the hours that I need! She will be sorely missed and I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone! She was not only a carer but a friend to my father too!
