I am Josephine from West Cumbria. As a 54-year-old mother of three adult children and grandmother to two wonderful grandsons, I bring a warm, family-oriented approach to my work.
I volunteer at my local village hall, and my hobbies include walking, crafting, gardening, and floristry – activities that keep me energised and connected to my community.
With many years in the care industry, I’ve supported elderly residents, adults and children with special needs, and served as a teaching assistant in a special needs school. I keep up with ongoing training to stay current with best practices, and am fully insured for all my services.
Drawing on this background, I offer not only compassionate, personalised in-home care but also companionship services, such as accompanying clients on outings they can no longer attend alone, ensuring each client receives the attentive support and experiences they deserve.
I have a level 2 Diploma in care, a level 2 Distinction in adult care, and a current enhanced DBS certificate.

Josie is a first rate carer. She has been caring for our mum for two years and always goes above and beyond what is expected. She undertakes personal care and covers a wide range of household duties. She is very flexible, thoughtful and considerate, we don’t know what we would do without her and have no hesitation in recommending her.

Josie is an absolute treasure. She has a heart of gold & is kindness itself. For well over a year she has been working for me on a weekly basis sometimes more as & when needed & thankfully continues to do so.
Without fail she arrives on the dot so I can certainly vouch for her 100% reliability & punctuality. She has a wealth of experience gained over a variety of care settings & it shows – her ‘people skills’ are exceptional. She is also very flexible & willing to adapt to any changes that may arise. Nothing is too much trouble, she is never fazed and is always prepared to go the extra mile if needed. Plus I have very much valued her useful suggestions & ideas for beneficial changes both practical and creative.
Most importantly she is always cheerful & positive with a ready smile & great sense of humour. I look forward to her invaluable help & company each week with much pleasure. September 2025
