Description
My name is Christine M, and I am a compassionate and experienced home carer with a passion for helping others. Over the years, I have gained invaluable experience in providing care for individuals with a range of challenges, including Mild Cognitive Impairment, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, depression, and being bedbound. Despite the complexities of these conditions, I approach each situation with empathy and a commitment to fostering independence in those I care for.
With a focus on hourly care, I possess a diverse skill set that includes bathing, toileting, assisting with dressing, catheter care, and providing companionship. I understand the importance of establishing trust and creating a safe and comfortable environment for my clients. Though I may not be able to drive, my dedication to delivering high-quality care remains unwavering, and I am always willing to go the extra mile to ensure the well-being of those in my care.
Outside of my caregiving role, I find joy in activities such as walking, playing card games, cooking and baking, solving puzzles, and tending to my garden. I am particularly fond of animals and am open to caring for pets, whether they be cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, or birds. My inherent attributes of being caring, friendly, and helpful drive my motivation to make a positive impact on the lives of those I care for, enabling them to maintain their independence and dignity with the support they need.
