Description
Hello, my name is Harriet N, and I am a compassionate and experienced home carer with a genuine passion for supporting individuals in need. As a female carer with a wealth of knowledge in providing hourly care, I have dedicated my career to making a positive difference in the lives of those facing challenges such as mild cognitive impairment, being bedbound, Parkinson's disease, anxiety, and depression.
With a true commitment to empowering others, I am proud to offer my expertise in various caregiving tasks such as bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and providing invaluable companionship to those in my care. As someone who can drive and has my own reliable vehicle, I am able to offer both physical assistance and transportation to appointments or outings, ensuring that my clients have the support they need to thrive.
Beyond my professional skills, I am a caring, friendly, and helpful individual who finds joy in engaging with others. In my free time, I enjoy exploring my hobbies such as painting, walking, playing card games, cooking & baking, and solving puzzles. Additionally, I have a soft spot for pets, including cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds, as I understand the comfort and companionship they can bring to individuals in need.
Driven by a deep-seated motivation to help people lead independent lives, I am dedicated to providing top-notch care with empathy and respect. I believe that everyone deserves to live with dignity and autonomy, and I am committed to being a supportive presence in their lives. If you are looking for a reliable and compassionate carer who can offer both practical assistance and emotional support, I would be honored to be a part of your care team.
