Find trusted Yoruba-speaking carers

Certified healthcare professional with 20 years of experience. I have worked in different dimensions of healthcare, elderly care, child care, home care and hospice care. I have 10 years experience in live-in care with a client with a neurological disorder and Parkinson's disease. I am a compassionate and skilled home health aide, devoted to providing superior in-home care to persons with disabilities and health limitations. Due to my positive approach to life and jovial nature, my clients are always eager to have me around. I live in the south-east area of London and I speak English and Yoruba fluently. I look forward to hearing from you, we are going to have so much fun.

I came into care five years ago without any nursing background, and I built my skills the practical way, learning on the job and adapting to whatever each client needed. Based in Eastleigh, I offer hourly and overnight care, and over the years I've supported people with dementia, learning disabilities, autism, epilepsy, Down's syndrome and several other conditions. I keep my enhanced DBS up to date on the update service, so families always know I'm ready when they need me. What I enjoy most is the company itself: cooking a proper meal together, a game of cards, or a wander outdoors if that's what someone fancies. I'm just as happy helping with bathing, dressing, medication or moving around the house, but it's the conversation and the small shared moments that I think make the biggest difference to someone's day. I speak English and Yoruba, and I try to bring a calm, steady presence to every visit, whether it's a short call or an overnight stay. If you'd like a dependable carer who genuinely enjoys the company as much as the caring, I'd love to hear from you.

I have always believed that good care starts with genuine company, not just getting tasks done, and that belief is what drew me into this work and keeps me in it three years on. Based in Rochdale, I offer hourly visits, live-in support and overnight care, and I speak both English and Yoruba, which has meant a great deal to some of the families I have worked with. What I enjoy most is the everyday companionship: sitting down to a proper meal I have cooked, a game of cards, a walk when the weather allows, or simply a good conversation over a cup of tea. I find that these small shared moments often do as much for someone's spirits as anything else, especially for clients living with dementia, Parkinson's or lower mood, where familiar company can be genuinely steadying. Alongside this, I support with personal care such as bathing, dressing, medication reminders and mobility, and I am experienced with catheter care and helping people who are bedbound stay comfortable. I am reliable, warm and easy to have in the house. If you think I might be a good match for your family, I would love to hear from you.
