What makes you a good companion?

I am a patient and kind individual, and I derive genuine joy from spending time with older people. Knowing that I am contributing value and providing assistance and companionship to an older person is highly rewarding to me.

Your best day at work you’ve ever had and what made it so good.?

I sat with an elderly lady under my care, savoring moments while going through photographs and enjoying a cup of tea together. We exchanged stories of her fondest memories, and I had brought along a delightful cake that we both savored during our time together.

In what skills area do you feel most qualified to be a companion?

I have experience working as a carer in the UK and as an au pair in Johannesburg. I have a genuine passion for being of service and providing assistance, whether it's offering companionship, preparing meals, or fulfilling any other necessary tasks. My patience and nurturing nature make me well-suited for this role.

What makes you most excited about# working with seniors?

The satisfaction I derive from knowing that I am enriching their lives, alleviating loneliness, and contributing to their overall well-being by making their days more engaging and productive is incredibly fulfilling.

What’s the most interesting thing about# you that we don’t know from your resume?

I'm not particularly comfortable with public speaking or being in large crowds during social gatherings. I much prefer spending time with a small group or engaging in one-on-one interactions.
