"Hi there, my name is Semida. I have a total of 10years of experience working in the care sector in the UK, with 5 years as a Health Care Assistant working through care agencies in care homes, respite care, and supported living with clients with learning disabilities, and 6years as a live-in carer. I am compassionate, caring, and friendly, with extensive experience dealing with people in the early stages of dementia, early-stage vascular dementia, epilepsy, and providing companionship for elderly individuals. I have worked in elderly homes, residential settings, respite care, and rehabilitation centres. When starting with a new client, I prefer to have a 3-week settling-in period where I can get to know my clients' needs. If, after this period, both parties are happy with my care, I am willing to extend my rotation to 6 or 8 weeks. I enjoy cooking fresh meals from scratch, keeping everything simple and engaging clients as much as possible in the process. I can teach my clients how to cook international dishes, specifically Romanian cuisine. Cleaning is also very important to me. My hobbies include jogging, taking care of pets—especially dogs—reading, gardening, learning to cook, studying foreign languages, travelling, and volunteering—such as feeding the homeless or assisting with various tasks in elderly homes—and meeting new people from different backgrounds. While in placements, my main focus is on my clients and their wellbeing; I am not available for outside jobs except for light gardening."

▶ Watch Intro

"I am a person who believes in hard work and dedication. I have been a caregiver for over four years, with extensive experience in care homes, domiciliary care, and live-in care. I possess excellent communication skills and respect all my clients. I am always happy and grateful when my clients are happy. I believe in being kind and good to others if you wish to receive kindness in return. My hobbies include music, cleaning, cooking, and watching television. I am a strong-minded individual willing to learn new skills wherever I go. Being a caregiver is a job that is close to my heart, as I have been doing it from a young age, having cared for my grandmother. "Be kind, be good, and be humble," as my grandmother used to say. I am primarily looking for live-in positions, and during my week off, I am happy to work three or four sleep-in nights per week. I have experience working with clients who require hoisting with electric hoists, standing aids, sliding sheets, and slings. I enjoy cooking at home and for my clients, where I encourage a well-balanced diet. Depending on the level of care required, I am happy to discuss whether I need a two-hour break on an individual basis. I am comfortable having clients' pets in the home while I care for them; however, I prefer to focus on the needs of my clients only."
