If you care for an older person who requires supporting and you need a break I can help. I can provide in home or community support, respite or carers break sessions. You can book me for a regular session or as a one off.
I have decades of experience support people with a wide range of support needs. So you can feel confident I will follow your plan and provide exactly the care that the person needs.
Please note I do a complimentary meet and greet and if we are a good fit we can work out the details from there.

Today I have been making resources to support people in learning how to do their own shopping. Food shopping, clothes shopping, gift shopping etc. Lots of planning, decision making, money management, communication as well as community access so it's easy to understand why shopping can feel overwhelming for some people.
Having one on one support to practice skills, build confidence at your own pace is a great idea.
If you would like a confidential chat about how I might be able to support you or someone you know to develop essential life skills please feel free to contact me.

Good support should be about helping you to find your own unique path.
