Description
Hello, my name is Kayleigh B and I have been a home carer for four years now. As a female carer, I possess the unique ability to empathize with my clients, making me very caring, friendly, and helpful. One of my biggest motivations for becoming a carer was the desire to help people lead independent lives, and I am glad to say that this has been the main focus of my career.
I have an extensive skill set, including bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and companionship. I have worked with clients who have mild cognitive impairment, are bedbound, have Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, and depression. I have found that each of my clients has a unique personality and background, so it's crucial to approach each case with the necessary sensitivity and care.
In my free time, I enjoy socializing with friends, playing board games, watching TV and listening to music. I am an animal lover, so I am very comfortable with cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds. If you are looking for a carer who can provide excellent support and care, please get in touch with me as soon as possible, and I will be more than happy to assist you.
