Description
My name is Priscilla, and I have been a home carer for seven years. I am a friendly and caring person, always happy to help people. I specialize in live-in and overnight care, and I have worked with people with various conditions, including mild cognitive impairment, bedbound, Parkinson's disease, anxiety, and depression.
My motivation for working as a home carer is to help people lead independent lives. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than knowing that I have made someone's life a little easier. I have honed my skills in bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and companionship. I take pride in providing high-quality care to my clients and doing everything within my power to make them happy.
In my free time, I enjoy cooking and baking, decorating, embroidery, DIY, and watching TV. If you are looking for a dedicated and compassionate home carer who can provide the support and care you require, please get in contact with me. I am looking forward to meeting you and learning more about how I can help you with your care needs.

Priscilla looked after my dad for about six years when he was newly diagnosed with alzheimers disease. She gave an exceptional care by providing companionship, running errands for his medication, shopping and preparation of good meals which promoted my dad's health. She treated him with respect and ensured that his personal care needs was met. She maintained dignity and privacy at all times and did light house chores. She is a friendly and a hardworking lady who treats her clients as family. I highly recommend her

I have known Priscilla for 5 years and she was an integral part of my team as a professional carer. She is affable, caring, hardworking and always eager to take on new challenges. She worked with clients with Dementia, Parkinson’s disease, Stroke and many more. She supported her clients with personal care, cooking, shopping, going on hospital appointments and taking day trips. She gave emotional support to families of her clients and ensured she that she maintained their privacy, dignity and confidentiality. Priscilla would be an assest to the client who would offer employment as she is respectful, friendly and a great cook. I highly recommend her
