Local carers in Midlothian

AVAILBLE FOR LIVE IN POSITIONS. I DONT MIND TRVELLING FAR TO PROVIDE CARE. My hobbies are meeting people, playing volleyball, reading, cooking, spending time with family and watching rugby. I've been a carer for just over 12 years now. I've worked mainly in care homes, nursing homes, and community work. My work consists of continence care, support with medication administration, meal planning and preparation, help with chores, and support clients with day to day activities. I have worked with clients that have Dementia, COPD, Stroke, Parkinson's Disease, PEG feeding, Catheter care, Palliative care, and also stoma care. I've done my access to Nursing, Studied Access to Health, Wellbeing and Social Science in Edinburgh College. I am a good carer with empathy. I am able to connect with the client in order to be able to help them. I have a good understanding towards the emotions a client may face as they face new realities. My preference is for live-in positions, ideally 2 weeks on and 1 week off at a time, however this is flexible depending on clients needs and locations, but if these are not available then I am able to do days, nights, waking nights and sleepovers in local areas. I prefer to work for clients in Scotland, but wont mind if I have to travel further, again depending on what is available. I speak fluent English, I don't mind looking after pets. I already have a PVG certificate. I can provide references from previous clients if required.

Hello In the day & age that we live in, everyone needs to have someone who is there for them! whether this is just to talk to, go shopping, have a coffee or cup of tea, or some help around the house, or a helping hand in general, I believe that all this, is an important part of daily life I have had 3 years of caring experience, where various activities were carried out for my mum. writing notes for Doctors, administering medication & general other duties too I loved this job of caring, and then when Mum passed, I worked for a caring agency, where the same activities, varied were carried out. I am friendly, outgoing, and love to meet people, help, counsel, befriend, and in general enjoy Great conversation too. Most of all, being a helping hand, and there to provide care. My hobbies are music, where I wrote a piece of music for the Edinburgh Pipeband...Glencorse Pipeband, who played on the Lee Evans Scottish Tour the music is called Scotland For Me! So, if you enjoy that kind of music, or even have a piano, I can play something for you I love to produce music for people, so if there is an idea for a piece of music, which you'd like, then, I'd love to write you a piece of music, or for your family, perhaps a special occasion will let you see other interests work involved in too Some time ago, I put a drink together Lemon, Ginger & Garlic Tea bag, and with Entrepreneurial Skills, brought it to market level a tasty, uplifting & refreshing drink, where you don't taste the garlic, however, get the benefits of the garlic, and what it does If you think that I am the type of person which you would like to help you, then, that would be Great! I will do my best for you, and above all, make sure that you are happy with the help that I give you. PVG This is an important certificate, which I have too As part of Pastoral Care, & Councelling too, I am registered in Edinburgh from 2001 Shiloah Ministries International I trust that I can be of help to you, and would look forward to being of service.

I am a mother of two and grandmother of one with another on the way. A highly motivated, friendly, and hard-working support worker with almost 3 years’ work experience in providing quality care to individuals with autism disorder, learning and physical disabilities, mental health challenges, and mobility issues. I possess a high degree of patience and a genuine desire to help others. It gives me great satisfaction to see others feel and become better versions of themselves. I am known for my ability to quickly build strong and trusting relationships with clients and their families. Other previous career roles have involved serving clients directly. This is something that I quite enjoy. My hobbies are cooking and trying new recipes, reading, music both listening and dancing, exercising (walking & swimming), watching sports like tennis, rugby and football with family and friends. I also love travelling both locally and abroad. For now, I am available to work on weekends and public holidays only, but I am looking to go full-time in the new year 2026.
