My name is Oluwapelumi, and I am an experienced caregiver and Personal Support Worker (PSW) with a solid background in homemaking and personal support, specifically in senior and child care. I have worked various schedules, including overnight shifts, to show my dedication to providing continuous and compassionate care. I am proficient in providing physical assistance and emotional support, offering companionship, and advocating for clients, especially in sensitive or challenging situations. Growing up in a traditional family has influenced my values of independence, hard work, and empathy, which I bring into my professional life. During my personal time, I focus on mindfulness, particularly through mindful meditation, to help me maintain balance and stay centered. I also enjoy listening to music by my favorite artist, Erigga, and exploring ways to improve professional communication and feedback. I take pride in being empathetic, patient, and reliable, qualities that make me a suitable candidate for any caregiving or support role. I am committed to making a positive impact on the lives of those under my care, and I am excited about the opportunity to work in a supportive and compassionate environment.

I have experience providing homemaking and personal support activities, including caring for seniors and children. As a Personal Support Worker (PSW), I have worked overnight shifts, showing my flexibility, and commitment to offering continuous care. My role involves assisting individuals with daily tasks such as personal care, companionship, and household duties. I also prioritize supporting their emotional and mental well-being. Additionally, I have navigated sensitive situations, such as providing emotional support and advocacy for clients facing discrimination, like Ms. Jack. This blend of practical and emotional care reflects my experience as a well-rounded caregiver.
