Claire W
I have over 18 years in the health care sector starting my journey within the NHS, I have also spent many years out in the community working for many domiciliary care agencies, I now work for myself as a private carer. I am a caring individual with great empathy, understanding and patience and nothing is too much trouble. I treat my clients with respect and dignity and have built up good relationships with them on that basis. I am a great listener and love to have humour with my clients. I go above and beyond for all those that I care for and nothing is too much trouble. I am very experienced with caring for dementia patients and end of life care. I am also a qualified Nursery Nurse/ Nanny and spent several years living and working in Athens and the Greek islands. I enjoy travel, keeping fit and an outdoor lifestyle. I love working out in the community and meeting new clients I have a couple of clients who I have had for over 3 years and they have now become like family to me

During COVID I9 I saw whilst working myself as a Carer within the Health & Social Care. The impact it had made to peoples mental health and their well being, self esteem. As they could not see in person their loved ones or give them a hug which meant so much to them. I decided to bring people back together socially within the local community where I worked after the COVID 19 PANADEMIC by creating and planning different themed and cultural, entertainment events. Which helped them with their anxiety and boosted their self esteem whilst socialising and engaging with others. Please feel free to Contact me by getting in touch & I look forward to hearing from you .
