Description
Hello, my name is Michelle H and I have been a home carer for 15 years. I find it incredibly rewarding to be able to assist individuals with their daily needs, while helping them maintain a sense of independence and dignity. During my years as a caregiver, I have gained significant experience in caring for those with mild cognitive impairment, anxiety, depression, osteoporosis, and rheumatoid arthritis.
My caring and friendly demeanor helps me to connect with my clients and provide a comforting environment that allows them to feel safe and secure. I understand the importance of patience, trust, and compassion, and how it can make a significant difference in the lives of others.
In addition to my caregiving duties, I am able to assist with daily errands and transportation needs as I am able to drive and have my own car. My hobbies include walking, decorating, DIY, and watching TV. I also enjoy spending time with dogs, making me comfortable around pets. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and experienced caregiver, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me.
