Description
My name is Stella C and I am a female home carer with a passion for helping others. With over 15 years of experience, I have provided care to individuals with a range of conditions including Progressive MS, Paralysis, Mild Cognitive Impairment, bedbound patients, Brain Damage, Dementia, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, and depression. My expertise lies in providing assistance with full personal care, manual handling if needed, catheter care, and offering valuable companionship/friendship, client centred approach to care allowing the client as much independence and dignity in the decision making around their life as possible.
While I am unable to drive and do not possess a car, I am more than capable of providing live-in, hourly, and overnight care. My dedication to my clients is unwavering, and I am committed to helping them lead independent lives. I may request travel compensation depending on the location I travel to.
Apart from being a professional carer, I also enjoy various hobbies that bring me joy and relaxation. These include going for rejuvenating walks, cooking, indulging in puzzles, capturing beautiful moments through photography, and socializing with friends and family.
Those who know me well would describe me as caring, friendly, and always helpful. It is my genuine belief that everyone should be able to live their lives with dignity and independence, and I am motivated each day to make a positive difference in the lives of my clients.

Stella worked for my brother who had severe MS from 12th November 2012 till his passing on 8th May 2021. Tim was a very high dependent person due to his MS and was in a wheelchair and needed help with everything. Stella and Tim had such a good relationship, she was very kind. patient, caring and she is fully training in convene procedures hoisting and has worked alongside other carers who came in to help Tim shower in the morning. I would definitely recommend her as a carer.
