Kalsuma Hussain

Hardworking, caring and reliable individual with experience in childcare, elderly care and customer service. As a mother of two and a full-time carer for a stroke survivor, I have developed strong patience, organisation, communication and time-management skills. I hold recognised Level 2 qualifications in Childcare, Health and Social Care, and Applied Science. I am eager to continue developing my skills and contribute positively in a professional childcare, care or support role.
