Description
My name is Elizabeth Nyambura N, and I am a female carer with a passion for helping others. With several years of experience in the industry, I have worked with individuals who have various care needs, including Mild Cognitive Impairment, Bedbound, Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, and Depression. I specialize in providing hourly care services, ensuring that individuals receive the support they need to maintain their independence.
One of my greatest strengths as a carer is my ability to establish a strong rapport with the individuals I care for. I am a compassionate and friendly person, always eager to lend a helping hand and provide companionship. I am skilled in assisting with daily activities such as bathing, toileting, and dressing, ensuring individuals are comfortable and well-cared for. Additionally, I am an excellent cook and can prepare delicious and nutritious meals for those under my care.
Outside of my caregiving work, I have a variety of hobbies that keep me engaged and fulfilled. I enjoy taking walks in nature, dancing to my favorite tunes, and playing card games. Cooking and baking are also some of my favorite pastimes, as I find joy in preparing delicious meals for friends and family. I also enjoy solving puzzles, as they help me stay mentally sharp and focused.
I am a licensed driver. I am comfortable with pets and have no preferences when it comes to caring for cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, or birds.
My motivation for being a carer stems from my desire to help people lead independent lives. I strongly believe in the importance of maintaining one's dignity and quality of life, and I am committed to providing the support necessary to achieve this. As a carer, my goal is to make a positive impact in the lives of those I care for, ensuring they feel valued, secure, and cared for.
If you are looking for a caring, friendly, and helpful carer, I would be delighted to discuss how I can support you or your loved one. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
