Find trusted Czech-speaking carers

I like meeting different people. Everybody is an individual, so I just adapt to what they need, whether that is a chat, a puzzle or a bit of gardening together. I offer hourly and visiting care across Greater London, and speak Czech, English, Slovak and Serbian, which often helps put clients at ease. Over 11 years I have supported people with dementia, autism, type 2 diabetes, physical disabilities, respiratory illness and poor mobility, including clients who are bedbound. My day to day work covers personal care such as bathing, dressing, toileting, hoist use and catheter care, as well as medication reminders, cooking, laundry and general household tasks. I also value companionship highly. One family told me they noticed a real improvement in their relative's mood and confidence since I began visiting, and that they looked forward to seeing me each day. That kind of feedback means a great deal to me. When things get difficult, I stay calm, know who I need to speak to, and never panic. I find activities like puzzles and board games are good for the mind and give us something to talk about. I would be glad to meet you or your family to talk through what support is needed.

I am an experienced Self - employed Live-in Carer with over 20 years of experience in providing compassionate and reliable care. I hold an NVQ Level 2 qualification and I always place the client at the centre of everything I do. My priority is to support each client with kindness, respect and understanding, following their individual needs, routines and personal preferences. I am a very organised, flexible and reliable person. I enjoy maintaining a clean, tidy and comfortable home environment, as I believe this is important for a client’s wellbeing and quality of life. One of my passions is cooking bfresh, healthy meals according to the client’s wishes and dietary needs. I particularly enjoy preparing traditional English meals and making sure the client enjoys nutritious and well-balanced food every day. I also enjoy spending quality time with the client. I am happy to go for walks together, accompany them to social activities, or simply provide companionship at home. If the client enjoys going to church, I would be very pleased to accompany them. If the client is still active, I am also happy to support them with light activities, outings or gentle exercise. I take pride in building a warm, respectful relationship with the client and supporting them to live comfortably and independently in their own home.

Whether it's a few hours a week or moving in as a live-in carer, I like my days to have a rhythm my clients can rely on. I offer both hourly visiting care and live-in care from my base in Steyning, and over ten years I have found I am happiest when I can settle into a routine with someone and really get to know them. One Christmas, I arranged a proper Christmas lunch for a client of mine. Seeing how happy it made him is something I still think about, it was a small thing to organise but it meant a great deal to him, and to me. That is the kind of care I enjoy most, not just the practical side like medication reminders, bathing or helping with meals, but noticing what would genuinely lift someone's day. Families have told me I am patient and that I create a friendly, easy atmosphere in the home, and I try to carry that same calm approach whether I am supporting someone with dementia, recovering from a stroke, or simply after company and a chat. I speak Czech, English and Slovak, and I am always glad to meet people with memories and stories of their own to share. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, please do get in touch, there is no pressure, just a friendly conversation to start.
