About Gillian F.

My name is Gillian, and I am a lively, friendly, and experienced carer. I have worked as a professional live-in carer since 2010, and I take great pleasure in helping elderly clients maintain their independence and well-being in the comfort of their own homes. Prior to becoming a live-in carer, I held administrative roles and ran my own business, where I created and sold handmade hats and jewellery. In 2010, I made the decision to pursue a career in live-in care, as I have a strong background in running a household and a genuine passion for caring for others. I come highly recommended by those I have worked with, often being described as a caring, proactive, upbeat, honest, and trustworthy individual. I enjoy preparing meals tailored to my clients' tastes, using fresh ingredients to create nutritious and delicious dishes. I am a driver, a non-smoker, and I have a fondness for animals.
