Helen helped me to care for my son for about 10 months before we moved house,. My son is profoundly disabled and needs feeding pureed food, he is at risk of choking, he also needs to be washed, dressed and changed , he has no independent mobility and uses a wheelchair and hoist. Helen had not worked with someone with the extensive needs that my son has but she learned quickly and was very sensitive and responsive to his needs. She is reliable and caring, she pays attention and learns quickly. I really enjoyed having Helen to help me care for my son and my son liked her too. l recommend her unreservedly she is brilliant!
