Description
Hello my name is Felicia and I am 52 years old. I am kind, caring and always happy to help others whenever I can. I am very approachable and always try to display an ‘open’ demeanour so that people around me feel comfortable to talk to me. I am honest, dependable and a good listener. I am enthusiastic and confident in my work ethic. If a problem arises when I’m at work I will do my best to solve it in a positive manner but I am also not afraid to admit when I need help and will gladly accept assistance. When I have made a mistake I will immediately admit to it and apologise and find a better way to go forward. I am open minded and treat everyone with dignity and respect. I enjoy helping others that is why I enjoy being a carer. It gives me great pleasure to see others happy and to make them smile.
