Letter to the family

Dear Host,
My name is Arlene , I am from the beautiful city Cape Town, South Africa,
I am a mother and grandmother, my hobbies are cooking, sewing, hiking, walks on the beach, the outdoors and a nature lover.

I have embarked on this journey in my life as a Caregiver since I no longer have parents to take care of and my parents were always near and dear to my heart, I have a soft spot in my heart for the elderly and children and I know that there is someone out there who needs my help and assistance to fulfil that duty as a daughter , companionship and carer role.

I am an honest reliable, trustworthy, dependable compassionate person and together with my experience and skills as a caregiver you could rest assured knowing that I will give your loved one the utmost care, love and respect they deserve. I am currently working at a Residential Care Home where my care for the elderly includes meal preparation/bathing/toileting/grooming/vital signs monitoring/light household chores, wound care and companionship.

I qualify for this position as I have completed a 3 month Home Base Care Training program in Dementia, CPR, First Aid and Palliative care, I have completed both written and practical examinations, I also completed practical hours at a Private Hospital caring for post-operative patients.

I trust that my above letter meets your approval and favor!

Yours Sincerely
Arlene

Experience

My experience as a Caregiver is not only to provide and assist with activities of daily living, but also to provide that emotional support and comfort in a dignified manner.

My reason for becoming a Caregiver abroad is simply because I absolutely love travelling, I have been to some countries and still would like to experience more places and learn the different cultures, thus for me it will be an even greater and wonderful experience to combine at the same time both my love for travelling and my passion for caring and helping others.
