Health and wellbeing including therapies, Help in the home or garden, Support for carers,
Hello, I’m Janette, Norfolk born and bred; married with 4 grown up children together with 3 step-sons. I feel blessed to have such a wonderful family. Throughout my career I have been a carer in a Nursing home, a registered Childminder and social tutor for adults with sensory loss (both blind and deaf), challenging behaviour and learning difficulties. I am a Carer for my mother with Dementia who is now in the later stages of Alzheimer’s and I know the heartache and difficulties this brings to families.
I have some wonderful clients; some home based and some living in Residential Care Homes. Together we do all sorts of things through the Companionship Service I provide; nothing is too much trouble and I have endless patience. Just making a small difference to someone’s day is the most satisfying part of my career.
Our elderly loved ones sometimes have a difficult time staying busy and active, especially if they are retired and living alone. This often results in lack of incentive and interest in the activities they once enjoyed. Maybe mobility issues become a problem, such as painful arthritis in their hands and then they lose the desire to continue with gardening, crafts, cooking, baking, shopping etc. without assistance.
This is where I can help. I can offer the patience, support and supervision to enable your loved one to carry on being independent and doing the things they enjoy, comfortably and safely.
