Nine years of home care across Bradford and Shipley, including three years with a domiciliary agency before going self-employed. Experienced in dementia support, mobility assistance, post-hospital recovery and end-of-life care alongside district nurses. Trained in moving and handling, and food hygiene certified. Happy to talk through my experience properly when we meet.
“I've been supporting older people at home for nine years, and I still think the best part of the job is the conversation. I started out helping my grandmother after her stroke, realised I was good at it, and never really stopped. I'm comfortable with personal care — washing, dressing, help getting up and settling at night — and I've supported several families through the earlier stages of dementia. I'm patient with people who need things done at their own pace, and I don't rush anyone out of their own routine. I cook properly, not just reheat things. If your mum tells me how she likes her chapatis, that's how I'll make them.”
