I’m a compassionate and dedicated senior and healthcare professional with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals across all stages of life from young adults with complex needs to elderly individuals requiring companionship, personal care, or end-of-life support. My background includes working in live-in care, supported living, private homes, residential settings, and agency based healthcare environments. I come from a family centred background and am a mother myself, which has deepened my natural empathy, patience, and ability to care with attentiveness and dignity. I’m known for being calm under pressure, highly organised, and emotionally intelligent qualities that have allowed me to build trust with clients and families from diverse backgrounds. I’m passionate about holistic care and wellness. My current studies in aromatherapy and cognitive behavioural therapy, alongside previous training in trauma-informed care and counselling, allow me to bring a more well-rounded and therapeutic approach to my work. In my free time, I enjoy nature walks, writing, cooking, and community outreach. I believe in creating safe, clean, and nurturing environments where people can feel truly supported and respected. Whether in a full-time live-in role or part-time care position, I bring warmth, professionalism, and a genuine heart for service.
