About Maria L.

My name is Maria, and I graduated from university with a Bachelor of Arts before beginning my career in customer service, where I worked for over 20 years in various roles. In 2021, I decided to transition into live-in care, and I’ve found great fulfillment in this line of work. I am compassionate, caring, and reliable, and I take pride in offering support to my clients with kindness and empathy. Over the past few years, I have worked as a Live-in Carer, providing care for elderly clients with a range of needs, including those living with dementia. I offer companionship and support in the comfort of my clients' own homes, ensuring they feel safe, respected, and valued. My background in customer service has honed my ability to work with people in a patient, understanding, and empathetic way, which has proven invaluable in my role as a carer. With my training and experience, I am committed to delivering the highest standard of care, always in line with professional guidelines and principles. Outside of work, I am a proud grandmother and an aspiring children's book writer. I love spending time with my granddaughter, reading, traveling, and cooking, which brings me joy and balance in my life.
