About Me:
Hello, I am Nicola and welcome to my profile.
I am passionate about people. I have previously been a Care Coordinator and a support worker for a supported living service for adults with Learning Difficulties and Autism.
I have also been a Personal Assistant where I helped my clients in their own homes, I prepared meals, change bedding, put the laundry on, helped arrange appointments, offered transportation to medical appointments, shopping, meeting friends and trips out and about to garden centers, parks etc. prompted with taking medication, accompanied on walks and exercise classes and companionship.
I grew up overseas, in Nigeria, Cyprus and The Netherlands and have loved everything to do with travel ever since and have been happily settled between Chalfont St. Giles and Chorleywood for the last 25 years. I speak Dutch and basic German, French and Greek.
I am compassionate, positive, caring, patient, warm, reliable and trustworthy. I love dogs and share 2 with my sister and have had cats before too, so I am happy to work in a home with pets.
In my spare time I enjoy going for drives in the countryside, walks along the canal, trips to the Garden Centre, short breaks in UK especially to the coast as I love the sea. I enjoy riding my bicycle when the weather is nice, I do fitness classes, yoga and like to spend time with my family and friends while having a tasty BBQ.
My rate is £22.
