Description
Hi there, my name is Margaretta D and I am a female home carer with over 11 years of experience. I am passionate about helping people lead independent lives and that is what motivates me to provide the best possible care to each of my clients. If you're looking for a carer who is caring, friendly, and helpful, then you've come to the right place.
As a home carer, I provide hourly and overnight care services for individuals with a range of health conditions. I have experience working with clients who have mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, depression, and those who are bedbound. Some of the skills I possess and services I provide include bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and companionship.
While caring for others is my primary goal, I also enjoy participating in a variety of hobbies in my downtime. I love taking long walks, playing card games, cooking and baking, working on puzzles, and decorating. If you have pets, know that I am comfortable around cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds.
If you are looking for a carer with my experience and skills, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me. I am always happy to chat and answer any questions you might have.

Margaret (as she is known) worked for me for 2 years. She is an exceptional carer. She would go above and beyond in her caring duties. Nothing was too much trouble. She is extremely trustworthy and her timing was impeccable. I would definitely recommend Margaret to anyone that needs a good quality carer.
