Description
Hi there! My name is Matilda and I have been a home carer for over five years, providing both hourly and overnight care for those in need. Some of the attributes I bring to my role include being caring, friendly, and helpful. I find my motivation for this career to be in helping people lead as independent lives as possible, while offering a therapeutic touch.
Although I cannot drive nor do I have a car, I am skilled in assisting with bathing, toileting, dressing, catheter care, and offering general companionship. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of individuals, from those with mild cognitive impairment to those who are bedbound. I am also experienced in caring for those with Parkinson's disease, anxiety, and depression.
In my free time, I enjoy taking walks, cooking and baking, and listening to music. I am also comfortable working in homes with pets. If you are in need of a home carer who is compassionate, experienced, and offers a helping hand, please feel free to get in contact with me.
