I am a well presented, mature self-employed British carer/housekeeper with over 17 years nationwide experience of temporary live-in assignments, both private sector and agency related. Enhanced DBS on registered update service, carer liability insurance, registered UTR number. Annual mandatory skills updated with Health & Safety Group. Non-smoker, car owner, excellent cook. Have lived in the north west for 8 years but originally from the south coast. I cared for my own mother during the 80s/90s, and was a waking night carer in a residential care home prior to undertaking full live-in care for clients in their own homes. My original career was in estate agency in East Sussex for 20 years.
Interests include classical/jazz, radio/presenting, reading, antiques and cooking. As I am now technically semi-retired, I am currently seeking short term assignments/rota bookings on a light personal care/companionship basis and not complex/heavy duty posts. Completely reliable, honest and responsible.
