Description
My name is Sofia U and I am a female home carer with extensive experience in providing care and support to individuals with various needs. I have been working in the care industry for over 10 years and have gained valuable experience in caring for individuals with conditions such as Mild Cognitive Impairment, Bedbound patients, Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, and Depression.
I am skilled in various aspects of care, including bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and providing companionship. I am committed to helping individuals maintain their independence and dignity, and I believe that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and kindness.
While I do not have a car of my own, I am able to drive and have a clean driving record. I am more than willing to travel to provide care to those in need. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and baking, gardening, practicing yoga, and indulging in DIY projects. I also love socializing and believe that building strong relationships is important.
I have a passion for caring for others and find fulfillment in making a positive difference in people's lives. I am a caring, friendly, and helpful individual who genuinely enjoys helping people lead independent lives. I have an affinity for animals and am comfortable caring for pets such as cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds. I look forward to meeting new people and providing the highest quality care to those who need it.
