Description
My name is Rosalia B, a dedicated and experienced home carer with a passion for providing compassionate support to those in need. With a wealth of experience in caring for individuals with various health challenges such as Mild Cognitive Impairment, Bedbound conditions, Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, and Depression, I possess the knowledge and skills necessary to offer high-quality care. Whether it's assisting with bathing, toileting, dressing, catheter care, or simply providing companionship, I am committed to ensuring the well-being and comfort of those under my care.
As a female caregiver with the ability to provide both live-in and hourly care, I take pride in my role as a supportive companion to individuals facing health challenges. With the capability to drive and access to my own car, I am able to offer transportation services as needed, enabling clients to attend medical appointments or engage in social activities. My skills extend beyond basic caregiving tasks to include a genuine interest in the well-being of pets, making me a suitable candidate for households with cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, or birds.
Outside of my caregiving duties, I enjoy staying active through hobbies such as walking, engaging in card games, cooking and baking, solving puzzles, and tending to my garden. These interests not only bring me joy but also help me maintain a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle, which in turn allows me to approach my caregiving responsibilities with a positive and empathetic attitude. With a natural inclination towards caring, friendliness, and helpfulness, I am driven by the desire to help people lead independent lives and find fulfillment in their day-to-day routines.

Ros is just lovely. She has managed to form a good relationship with our 94 year old mum, who has dementia and is quite anxious, and is one of those rare warm people who will always go the extra mile. From cooking delicious meals (for a very particular client who knows food!) to reassuring, finding lost objects, managing sensitive moments, noticing and attending to household needs etc she's been great. Also a joy to chat with for family members, and an excellent communicator. Thoroughly recommend.

Rosalia is kind, friendly and very professional. She is excellent caring for my mother sometimes and my mother feels safe and comfortable with her.
