About Valeria U.

I am Hungarian , speak fluent English, and some German and have had the opportunity to travel the world extensively. I started working as a live in carer in the UK in 2017, and before that, I had been working as an accredited practitioner of a cutting edge body-mind healing work with thousands of clients for 15 years. I studied this healing modality in the U.K. in the early 2000’s. In this last 2,5 years I have been a live-in carer for clients with different stages of Alzheimer’s from early stage to late onset, stroke, parkinson, palliative care. I assisted with medication management, telephone calls with doctors, companionship, giving them reassurance in times of confusion, personal care, hygiene, cooking and doing light housework such as dishwashing or ironing, and driving their car. I cannot take care of pets due to my allergy to pet furs. I am a compassionate and sensitive person, who likes to make a difference in client's life. I enjoy going the extra mile for my clients: I helped my clients to make slight changes in her food choices if they were open to this, working with their doctor to monitor progress and by introducing supplements in their diets, one of them was able to reverse her prediabetes to normal. I like to go for walks with my clients, concerts, village fairs, library or do light exercises with them depending on their conditions. I am a vegan because of protecting animals life and mown health. I also enjoy doing yoga, pilates, knitting, reading and cooking. My work preferences are a long-term, and live-in care, without night calls.
