Find trusted Filipino-speaking carers

Over sixteen years of care work, I have learned that steadiness matters as much as skill. It is what people need most when things feel uncertain, whether that is a dementia diagnosis, a recent operation, or simply the challenge of daily life with a long-term condition. That steadiness is what I try to bring into every home I work in across London. I offer hourly visits and overnight care, and speak English, Tagalog and Filipino. Over the years I have supported people with a wide range of conditions, including dementia, Parkinson's, diabetes, arthritis and mobility difficulties, and I am comfortable with the full range of personal care, from bathing and hoist use to catheter care and medication reminders. I also take care of the practical side of a household, cooking, cleaning and laundry, so a home stays comfortable and calm rather than just managed. What clients and families tend to notice most is how relaxed things feel once I am there. I am a patient, calm presence, happy to sit and talk over tea, put music on, or simply be good company through the quieter parts of the day. I would be glad to meet you or your family and talk through what support would help most.

Ten years into home care in Ilford, I have found that the job suits the way I naturally am with people: chatty, attentive, and happiest when I am useful. I offer hourly visiting care and speak both English and Filipino, which has opened up easy conversation with a good many of my clients over the years. My experience covers a wide range, from dementia and Parkinson's to stroke recovery, diabetes, arthritis and end of life care, alongside practical skills like moving and handling, catheter care and medication reminders. What I enjoy most, though, is the company side of the visit. I like to sit and talk properly rather than just get through a list of tasks, whether that is over a cooked meal, a board game, or music playing while we potter about the house. I love to dance and socialise myself, and I bring that same energy into my visits, keeping things light and cheerful even when we are also managing dressing, bathing or mobility support. Clients tell me they look forward to seeing me, and that matters to me as much as getting the practical care right. If you would like a carer who will genuinely enjoy your company as much as looking after you, I would love to hear from you.

I offer hourly, live-in and overnight care around Cumbernauld, and what I enjoy most is helping people keep their independence and dignity through steady, familiar routines. My background includes work as a radiographer and in emergency room support back in the Philippines, which taught me to stay calm under pressure and to communicate clearly with everyone involved in someone's care. I speak English and Filipino, and bring a broad, practical perspective shaped by that varied healthcare training. Day to day, I support people living with dementia, Parkinson's, stroke, arthritis and declining mobility, as well as those who are bedbound or recovering after surgery. I'm comfortable with bathing, dressing, toileting, catheter and colostomy care, moving and handling, medication reminders and preparing meals, alongside the quieter side of the job such as good conversation, puzzles or simply having the television on together. I try to keep each visit structured and unhurried, so people feel respected rather than rushed. If you're looking for a carer who takes a calm, careful approach, I'd be glad to talk through what your family needs. I look forward to meeting you.
