My name is Jo and I have decided to set up my own micro-enterprise called A Day’s Help.

I can help you with anything you require apart from personal care.

I promise I will always respect your privacy and keep your information confidential.

I can work with family members to ensure your loved one has a high quality of care.  I keep detailed records of all interactions and keep family members informed at every stage.

I feel passionately that all the people I care for are treated like I would like a member of my family to be treated.

I am fully insured, have enhanced DBS and have all my training certificates saved in my portfolio which you can view on request.
