I began working in the childcare sector in 2011. I completed an apprenticeship for my Level 3 Diploma for the Children and Young people’s workforce. From here, I worked my way up and became a Deputy Manager of a large nursery chain in Basingstoke. After having my own child, I spent two years working in a busy HR office within a large chain of Nurseries and began working in recruitment. I recruited for over 42 Nurseries across the UK and helped people to find various roles within this sector. In 2020, I joined Home Instead during the pandemic as a Recruiter.
As a Recruiter, it’s important I find the right people to join our Home Instead family. I am here to assist our Care Professionals through their journey with us to help them feel supported and excited about their role. I love meeting new people and playing a part to help make a real difference to people in the community that need our help.

I am very excited to be part of the Home Instead team where I am responsible for scheduling client visits and making sure they are provided with the right level of support from our team of Care Professionals.

I have worked in care for over two years supporting private clients and also with social care for vulnerable adults. Having progressed to the position of Supervisor I jumped at the opportunity with Home Instead as I was aware that they focus on providing a first-class service with the service centred around their clients.

Over the course of my career, I have worked in the field of care for over 20 years, including over 12 years with Home Instead. Since last year, I have been working with the live in care team as their supervisor and supporting them in person and remotely.

Sarah started her professional working career in the care sector and has now returned to help Home Instead be part of the community. Looking to make a difference, Sarah joined the Team to help strengthen our community relations and to make a difference to someone’s day!

Amanda has 12 years of experience supporting adults, starting as a live-in carer and later working in a rehabilitation unit and Adult Social Services. Amanda enjoys outdoor activities, I spend some of my time volunteering at a wildlife hospital, crochet, and Pilates.
