Scarlett Taylor

A motivated and dependable Level 3 Health and Social Care student with hands-on experience supporting residents in a care home setting, including running daily activities and providing person-centred, inclusive support. Alongside my studies I run my own social media management business and work as a baker for a small local business, which together have developed strong communication, organisation and client-handling skills. I'm particularly drawn to roles that guide and support people through key transitions, and I'm looking to bring my care and safeguarding experience into a careers guidance setting.

I hold a full UK driving licence and have my own car, and I'm happy to relocate or commute as needed. I'm reliable, work well independently and as part of a team, and available for interview at short notice.
