GRACE JOY AUDU-WAR

I am an experienced healthcare assistant and child caregiver who is exceptionally passionate, driven, and dedicated to providing professional, friendly care and support services to vulnerable people, including children and the elderly with special needs. With over 5 years of experience, I have a deep understanding of creating care plans that meet the requirements of my clients in a person-centered setting while honouring their independence and dignity. I am extremely competent in meal preparation, shopping, laundry, light housework, monitoring vital signs, medication administration, mobility assistance, and personal care and hygiene support. I have made a significant difference in the lives of both the elderly and children, and I have a proven track record of demonstrating excellent managerial skills by planning, organizing, and directing operations to ensure the organization's goals are met. I am dedicated to adding value to the lives of children and believe a simple act of kindness and love can go a long way. I pay special attention to hygiene support and allergies.

• Sports. Doing sports can demonstrate a bunch of soft skills, including dedication, teamwork, and work ethic.
• Government and leadership. Extracurricular activities like the student council, student government, or Community Youth Board can prove your leadership, organizational, and decision-making skills.
• Cultural and language. Foreign languages are highly valued by recruiters and showing that you master one and that you’re culture-oriented can effectively set you apart from other candidates. Specifically, these types of extracurricular activities testify to your determination, hard work, and cultural awareness.
• Volunteering activities. Volunteering activities are the extracurriculars that are closest to an actual job (without the pay, that is). On top of proving you can be passionate about a cause to devote your time to it, volunteer work typically comes with responsibilities and deadlines that can show recruiters you’ll be a reliable employee.
• Academic. Academic activities such as peer tutoring or participation in different clubs and teams can attest to your communication skills, specific expertise in a particular area, and creative thinking skills, among other things.
• Political interest and social activism. These types of activities, from fundraising to supporting different social causes locally or nationally, can demonstrate a variety of valuable skills (project management skills, leadership, analytical skills, etc.).
