Expertise
I have a passion for travel and enjoy visiting new places and am well practised at organising itineraries for trips. I also enjoy knitting, dressmaking, arts & crafts, jigsaw puzzles, paint by numbers, cooking & baking (I try to adapt recipes to low sugar or sugar-free where possible), going for long walks, keeping fit, visiting places of interest, quizzes, going to the cinema, theatre and concerts.
Experience
I have a 28 year old son who has Asperger's Syndrome and have been working with adults with learning disabilities for the last four years.
I have completed the Care Certificate and have experience working with clients who have learning disabilities. My duties have included supporting clients to go shopping and attend leisure activities, as well as assisting with household tasks such as cleaning, laundry and cooking, helping to organise holidays etc. My 28 year old son has Asperger Syndrome so I have many years of experience in this area.
Background
In my earlier working years I had a variety of different jobs, including dispensing assistant in an opticians, sales, accounts and admin. I was then a full time mum for several years before becoming a childminder. Later I became a Pharmacy Dispenser and have also had my own small coach travel business.
I became a Support Worker in 2018 in a respite setting, then moved on to working with clients in a Supported Living setting.
