Description
Hi, I'm Thelma, a compassionate and experienced female carer with a strong passion for helping others lead fulfilling and independent lives. With years of experience in providing support to individuals with various challenges, including Mild Cognitive Impairment, Parkinson's Disease, and mental health conditions like Anxiety and Depression, I bring a deep understanding of diverse care needs.
My expertise lies in a wide range of care types, including Live-in, Hourly, and Overnight care, specializing in tasks such as bathing, toileting, dressing assistance, catheter care, and providing essential companionship. While I may not be able to drive or possess a car, my skills and dedication to ensuring the well-being of those under my care are unwavering.
Outside of my caregiving role, I enjoy hobbies such as walking, dancing, cooking and baking, engaging in DIY projects, and socializing. I have a soft spot for pets, including cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds, understanding the important role they play in providing comfort and companionship.
With attributes of being caring, friendly, and helpful, I am driven by the satisfaction of making a positive difference in the lives of those I care for. If you are seeking a dedicated and reliable carer who values independence and quality of life, I would be honored to support you or your loved one on this journey towards enhanced well-being and happiness.
