"I have been a carer for 16 years and have worked in various care settings. I have experience with elderly people, dementia, hospitals, live-in care, hospice, learning disabilities, mental health, and children with physical disabilities. I am currently working as a team leader in a care home. I am a caring person, very flexible, and willing to work in any unit with any client. Additionally, I am a good team player and can make independent decisions in the best interests of clients when the need arises. Each job presents its own challenges; however, I always strive to deliver a high standard of care. I am very aware of the importance of good attendance and punctuality, as my job requires. I engage clients with enjoyable activities and always prioritise their safety, whether I am out with them or within their home. I am an outgoing person; I love dining out and having fun with friends. I enjoy shopping, singing, and listening to music, particularly Gospel. In summary, I am a very patient person and always enjoy reaching out to those in need or who require support. My love for people and my desire to learn from different backgrounds make me a good carer."

"Hello, here is some information about what I have been doing for the last few years. I was previously employed as a carer for a very frail lady in South Africa, mainly as her companion and driver, taking her to appointments and, best of all, coffee dates. I arrived in the UK in June 2020 at the start of the lockdown due to Covid. At the beginning of my caring career, I initially worked as a live-in carer in the Oxford area for several months, after which I decided to transition to domiciliary care. At the same time, I moved to Walton-on-Thames from Bristol as I wanted to be close to my daughters, one of whom lives in Walton and the other in London. I was employed full-time as a domiciliary carer through an agency in Ashford for about a year and a half, which is where I completed a large proportion of my training. During this time, I enjoyed meeting many lovely clients, who were at times challenging, but we ended up becoming good friends, and we both looked forward to our regular visits. Since leaving the agency environment, I have adopted a more self-employed approach in the domiciliary care industry in and around Walton, Weybridge, and Cobham, though I have found myself visiting and driving to clients as far as Leatherhead and Croydon. I have many hobbies, but most of all I enjoy knitting for my two grandchildren, walking and visiting the wonderful parks and rivers in our area, reading, cooking, and my regular yoga practice."
