Hi there,
My name is John. I was born and raised in south London. I've had a varied life having lived abroad for many years. I'm half Greek and speak both English and Greek fluently. I have worked as an EFL teacher and had various entrepreneurial jobs in hospitality.
I have a wealth of life experience.
My first introduction to caring was 12 years ago when I looked after my mother in her last years who had complex health care needs. 2 years ago I became a live-in carer looking after a gentleman with 25 medical conditions. I was able to thrive by using my communication and organizational skills. I am very much aware of how challenging the system is and know how to forge good relationships with other professionals but also to speak up when necessary to facilitate the needs of the person I care for. I try to empower and facilitate in my work.
I am available for 3 week on and 3 week off shifts.
