With two decades as British Airways long-haul cabin crew — delivering world-class service to First and Club passengers — I now bring that same standard of excellence to private, one-to-one care.
For the past three years, I provided live-in care for a wonderful lady living with dementia, supporting her through every stage with consistency, compassion and calm. In addition to hands-on care, I coordinated the rota for the full care team, ensuring seamless, round-the-clock support. Following her recent passing, I am now available for a new placement.
I’ve also supported clients across West Sussex, Dorset, Windsor and Barnham — both in residential and private homes. I specialise in discreet, high-quality live-in and longer-term care tailored to the individual — always delivered with warmth, professionalism and meticulous attention to detail.
DBS-checked, fully vaccinated (COVID and flu), with up-to-date care certificates, I am also a car owner and driver with full insurance. Organised, proactive and deeply committed, I offer a level of care that blends genuine companionship with premium standards.
Willing to work as a travel companion and happy to travel within the Uk or abroad (extra fees to cover travel arrangements will apply)
If I’m unavailable, I’m happy to refer you to a trusted colleague from my handpicked Curam micro team.
Outstanding references available. Please feel free to get in touch for a confidential conversation.

Maria Lorena totally renewed my faith in finding wonderful care for my elderly mother with complex needs. She was kind, hard working, caring , and attentive to mums needs. She puts her client first, and is totally trustworthy . She was a breath of fresh air and does the very best .
I would have no hesitation in recommending her to look after your loved one. Look no further. :-)
