I am a highly skilled specialised carer, with 25 years of experience supporting individuals with complex care needs and neurodivergent. I am hard working, honest and punctual. I have excellent communication skills and am open with my approaches when supporting individuals. I am willing to learn new skills and want to build upon my own experiences. I feel that I bring enthusiasm, creativity and fun to those that I support and a positive aura for progression and development. I am confident, approachable and have a good sense of humour. I work well as part of a team or independently and trust my own ability in decision making. I am proud of my achievements as these have given me a sense of fulfilment. I am keen to develop in my career and welcome all new challenges offered both in a supporting or management role. "
