Private home care in Bicester - Tanya
Bicester
Tell us about you!
Hi, my name is Tanya.
I have run my own 2 businesses since 2003 as both a nail technician and my cleaning business. I have only been working part time recently, but throughout my career the thing I have loved the most is doing pedicures for the older people because they really enjoy and appreciate my treatments, as well as the companionship.
Most of my cleaning jobs throughout the years have also been more for the elderly and they have enjoyed my company also and enjoyed to chat. I am very interested in this position because I am looking for some kind of care work, because I am extremely caring and enjoy supporting people. I enjoy being around people and talking a lot, I enjoy drawing, swimming and walking.
I worked for 3 years for an elderly couple in Woodstock, where I initially just started cleaning for them, but as they got to know me more, the lady was living with a disability and her husband was living with Alzheimer's, so they gradually asked me to do more things for them, like take them both shopping, I used to take her husband out to the cafe also for a coffee, which he really enjoyed.
Later on they even asked me to start helping them with some of their phone calls and help with their utility bills, I really enjoyed helping them and I used to go to help them also 3 times per week, which is why this position sounds ideal to me.
Availability: Monday to Friday 9am-6pm but only part time within those hours to a maximum of 20 hours per week.
I am happy to travel up to 30 minutes, so the location of Chawley suits me really well as it is a 25 minute drive.
