Description
I am Nancy M, a female home carer with 15 years of experience in hourly care. My clients describe me as caring, friendly, and helpful, and I take pride in providing the best possible care to those I work with. My motivation for caring stems from a desire to help people lead independent lives, regardless of their physical or cognitive abilities.
I am fully licensed to drive and have my own car, which makes it easy for me to travel to clients' homes. I have extensive skills in bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and companionship. Over the years, I have worked with individuals with mild cognitive impairment, those who are bedbound, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, and depression, among others.
In my free time, I enjoy walking, cooking and baking, gardening, socializing, and watching TV. I am also comfortable around pets, including cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds. If you're looking for a compassionate, experienced home carer who is passionate about helping people achieve their best lives, get in touch with me today.
