I love caring for people in their time of need and the people that I work with often become my friends and part of my own extended family. I am a highly skilled and motivated individual who has invested in professional development training to enable me to do my job properly and safely. This means that I feel comfortable providing full personal care, I can lift safely and work in challenging situations to diffuse anxiety or aggressive behaviours. I believe in seeing the person rather than the illness and enjoy making people feel happy and alive in the moment. My values promote independence and fun for the person I am caring for and I genuinely enjoy helping them get the most out of each day. I also pride myself in attention to detail and this can range from doing beautiful hairstyles and make up to cooking delicious nutritious food.
