Description
I am a mother to 4 amazing children and have worked in the care sector for the previous 5 years. I decided to become a carer as I was previously a stay at home mother and as my children grew up and became more independent I found myself with a lot of free time on my hands and thought what better can I spend my free time than taking of the elderly and vulnerable.
The things I enjoy most about being a carer is being able to support and help those who struggle and are in need of support as I find great joy in being able to help people and have a caring nature due to me raising 4 kids. My previous partner also had medical conditions and I was his carer so I have had experience in this field before I became employed in it.
I've worked for two care agencies in the past which are nationwide and right Trust care in which I was doing home visits which consisted of me providing clients with all aspects of personal care.
