Description
Hello, my name is Oyenike O and I am a female home carer. I have been working in this field for several years now, and I find great joy and fulfillment in helping others lead independent lives. I specialize in hourly care and have experience in caring for individuals with a range of conditions including Mild Cognitive Impairment, Bedbound, Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, and Depression.
While I do not have a car, I am able to drive and have reliable transportation. I am skilled in various aspects of care such as bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and providing companionship. I strongly believe that providing emotional support and companionship is just as important as assisting with physical needs.
In my free time, I enjoy walking as it helps me stay active and clear my mind. Additionally, I love cooking and baking, and I find it therapeutic. Socializing with friends and loved ones is also something I cherish greatly. I also have a preference for pet fish.
One of my greatest attributes as a carer is that I am caring, friendly, and helpful. I genuinely care about the well-being of those I assist, and I strive to create a comforting and safe environment. My motivation for being a carer is rooted in my desire to make a positive impact on the lives of others and support them in maintaining their independence.
