Description
Hello, my name is Onyeka A, and I am a compassionate and experienced home carer specializing in hourly care. With a background in caring for individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, depression, and those who are bedbound, I bring a wealth of knowledge and skills to provide top-notch care in the comfort of your home.
I am a female carer who believes in empowering individuals to lead independent lives while offering the necessary support and assistance they may require. With the ability to drive and access to my own car, I ensure that my clients can attend appointments, run errands, and engage in activities outside the home if they wish to do so.
My skills range from assisting with bathing, toileting, dressing, catheter care, to providing companionship to those who need it. I am not just a carer but a friend who enjoys activities such as walking, dancing, cooking & baking, solving puzzles, and socializing. I am also a lover of pets, welcoming cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds into the homes where I provide care.
Combining my caring nature, friendliness, and helpfulness, I am dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of those I care for. I find deep motivation in helping individuals maintain their dignity, autonomy, and quality of life in a familiar and supportive environment. If you are seeking a carer who goes above and beyond to ensure your well-being and comfort, I am here to support you every step of the way.

Onyeka was professional, exceptionally friendly and put my Grandmother immediately at ease. Her communication was fantastic from the get go. I would highly recommend.
