Description
Hello, I'm Mergan Munawa, a dedicated and experienced female carer passionate about helping individuals live their lives to the fullest. With a heart full of compassion and a drive to make a positive difference, I have been providing high-quality care to clients with a range of needs for several years.
My care types include hourly and overnight assistance, and I have extensive experience in supporting individuals with conditions such as Mild Cognitive Impairment, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, depression, and those who are bedbound. I am skilled in tasks such as bathing, toileting, dressing assistance, catheter care, and providing companionship. Furthermore, my ability to drive and access to a car make me a versatile and reliable carer who can attend to your needs promptly and efficiently.
Outside of my caregiving responsibilities, I enjoy engaging in activities such as walking, dancing, playing card games, cooking and baking, and practicing yoga. These hobbies not only bring me joy and relaxation but also help me maintain a healthy work-life balance. I am also a pet lover and have a preference for cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds, making me a great fit for households with furry or feathered friends. My attributes of being caring, friendly, and helpful define my approach to caregiving, and my primary motivation is to help individuals achieve independence and dignity in their daily lives.
