I am Nicole Pienaar. I have worked in care since 2024. It all started with my Mum and the history that I had taking care of my best friend who suffered from illness from a young age and required assistance with mobility. I feel that I have skills to offer that can make a difference in the lives of the people I look after. I moved to the United Kingdom in early 2024 and was interested in the work my mum was doing as a care worker. After shadowing for 2 weeks, I realised I could contribute. I studied my level 2 in care and began working. I saw the difference my role was making to people I looked after, which encouraged me to study even further and follow my dream of being the change I want to see in the world. I believe you can make a difference in people’s lives if you are passionate and truly caring.
I strive to show the people I care for compassion, while treating everyone with dignity and respect. I take my role in safeguarding very seriously and aim to keep my colleagues and all clients safe from harm and neglect. I have now attained my level 3 and level 4 in health and social care. My role at Kerry Cares is Senior Care Worker, and I hope to invoke the same passion and compassion in the colleagues I work with. I hope to mentor staff into the roles they hope to attain.
