Find trusted Brazilian-speaking carers

I am Portuguese-Brazilian, 49 years old, married to an Englishman, and have an only daughter who is 31 years old. I have lived in England for almost 7 years, I am legally registered (I forgot to send my share code). I study and learned English on my own. I do not speak it perfectly or with excellent pronunciation, but it is enough to work, communicate and make myself understood. I have completed training in this area in the two companies where I have worked and still work. Sometimes it takes me a few seconds to understand what is being said to me. But it is the process of listening, translating into Portuguese and translating back into English. But I have managed to overcome all these challenges. And I am also immensely grateful for all the opportunities I have had here in England. During my time here, I have worked in a motorcycle parts manufacturing company, at the Hippodrome Casino in London, in different factories and temporary employment agencies, and also as a cleaner. I studied psychology for 3 years in Portugal, but I did not finish my course. I am very friendly, approachable, polite, kind, very human and generous. The care area was an extraordinary discovery in my life, because it helped me to understand and accept some gaps that I had in my life, especially with my father who passed away 2 years ago with dementia and a lot of physical mobility. I also took care of my ex-in-laws who had Alzheimer's in Portugal. And along with all this, I took care of my mother who had cancer. Although I have only worked as a caregiver for a year, I have a lot of experience in care, because when I worked at Quantum Care, I worked long days many days a week (an average of 14.5 hours a day) and often without time off (by choice). Well, I'm just sending this email to give you a brief description of who I am. Thank you for your attention. Erika Braga Coote

My name is Adriana, and I am a compassionate and experienced female carer specialising in live-in and overnight care. With a strong background in supporting individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment, Parkinson's Disease, bedbound patients, as well as those battling anxiety and depression, I provide a holistic approach to caregiving that prioritizes the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of my clients. Drawing on my skills in bathing, toileting, assisting with dressing, catheter care, and offering companionship, I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for those under my care. One of my core beliefs is that everyone deserves the opportunity to lead an independent life regardless of their health challenges. This belief, coupled with my nurturing nature and empathetic approach, drives me to go above and beyond as a carer. I take pride in fostering a sense of dignity and respect for my clients, building trusting relationships that empower them to maintain their sense of autonomy and identity. Outside of my caregiving duties, I find joy in various hobbies such as painting, walking, cooking and baking, solving puzzles, and decorating. I believe that incorporating these activities into my routine not only enhances my own well-being but also allows me to bring creativity and positivity into the lives of those I care for. With a preference for pets including cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds, I understand the importance of animal companionship and strive to accommodate and care for any furry friends in the home. With a driving license and a heart full of compassion, I am ready to embark on a new caregiving journey, bringing my caring, friendly, and helpful attributes to enrich the lives of those in need.
