Reference

From Private Family: MC was a carer for my child for a few months. She was sick. MC did a very good job taking care of her. She knew what to do, kept notes on what to do for the day and on her health. She listened to instructions and took initiative. She also went an extra mile by cleaning the house and cooking. Had my daughter not passed on, MC would still be working for me. She’s great. I recommend her.

From Hospital: reference will be given upon request.

From Private Family (ED): JM was a carer for my mother. I got her through an agency. She took care of my mom for six months until she passed on. She had a heart attack. She was an excellent carer, and she was very helpful towards my mom. She also helped around the house. I recommend her. She’s good.

From Hospital: JM worked at the hospital for two years since last year. She did her job well and never caused any problems. JM also knows how to interact with the patients and staff. I would recommend her.
