 EH54 8PH 16242 My name is Marion and I live in West Lothian. I have been a carer for the last 12 years and love it. During my time as a carer, I have dealt with many different life-changing illnesses. I am very experienced at dealing with Dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease and people living with disabilities. I am very reliable and hardworking. I love spending time with my clients and listening to their stories about their lives. My main hobby is gardening which I have now extended and have an allotment where I grow my own fruit and veg. I find this a very rewarding and relaxing hobby. I love being outside and going for country walks. I love nothing more than helping people and bringing a smile to their day. I am kind and a very good listener. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and hopefully will hear from you soon. {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":false,"field_care_type_first":"","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":false,"field_care_type_second":"","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":false,"field_care_type_third":"","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":false,"field_care_type_fourth":"","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":false,"field_care_type_fifth":"","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":false,"field_care_type_sixth":"","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":false,"field_care_type_seven":""}

Am a full time mum, living in Mid Calder. Worked in construction/ Interior design for over 15 years. 5 years ago came to visit a friend for Easter holidays and fell in-love with Scotland. The sound of nature, air, community spirit even the taste of tap water then two months later, we moved and my priorities changed. I have always wanted to be a a full time stay home mum, relocating allowed me the privilege. I am still enjoying the benefits but he is growing faster than I thought, almost a teenager and taller than me... 2019, I took a job with an agency as a carer, unfortunately that did not last long because I did not agree with their way service was rendered, but must say it was the most fulfilling job I ever took part in and believe I could have done better and help to change lives. I love music (old school soul), dancing, singing, laughing just enjoying the pleasures and blessings of life. Enjoy sharing positive energy with others. {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"0","field_care_type_first":null,"field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"0","field_care_type_second":null,"field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"0","field_care_type_third":null,"field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"0","field_care_type_fourth":null,"field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"0","field_care_type_fifth":null,"field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":"0","field_care_type_sixth":null,"field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":"0","field_care_type_seven":null}

 FK3 0BY 204405 My name is Ethel, I am an experienced, professional, and caring lady with over 20 years invested in the care and support of others. I did not intend to do live in care but repeated requests by clients and their families has led to me specialising in Live In and Domiciliary care for over 10 years. I still keep up to date with the practices in other sectors of the care sector, including nursing and care and care in the community, and still work in these environments. I have training and the practical experience in specialist areas, such as special needs, dementia, palliative care and others such as challenging behaviours, self-harm, violent outbursts, danger to the public and Autism and Down Syndromes. I believe we should all work together as it is only then we can create the type of world, most of us wish to live in. My personal life revolves around nay family, which takes up much of my free time, including my son and wife, Granddaughter, nephews, nieces, cousins, and of course my “aunties” and “uncles”, who still offer me advice on anything (or everything) except I am an “auntie” to a few, and am happy to give advice and guidance based on my own experience, life. Myself and a few other African ladies have formed a club and invest resources etc. to help and empower Africans mainly back in Southern Africa, but also abroad to succeed, especially women, and encourage them to do the same for others. I do not give my services lightly, but when I commit to something, I do it to the best of my ability utilising my experience and my upbringing that taught me that the greatest thing we can do is the care of others. Give me a call and we can discuss hours, rates, needs, wants, etc. Then give me a try, you won’t regret it. 1 0 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":false,"field_care_type_first":"","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":false,"field_care_type_second":"","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":false,"field_care_type_third":"","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":false,"field_care_type_fourth":"","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":false,"field_care_type_fifth":"","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":false,"field_care_type_sixth":"","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":false,"field_care_type_seven":""}
