Lily Gilbert

I am currently looking for work, I am willing to travel. I like to visit new places, meet up with friends to catch up and go shopping. I like cleaning in my spare time and making sure everything is tidy, hygienic and all up to standard.

I am a very outgoing person. I get along with all people and like to make new friends whenever I can. I feel comfortable working as part of a team or alone if needed and can use initiative in stressful situations.

I have a full up to date DBS certification and I am also first aid trained. I am passionate about cooking and preparing meals whilst also providing a happy and healthy atmosphere. I have a young son, so I understand the importance of responsibilities and how they shape our daily lives.
