To Whom it may concern
I have known and worked with Aroha for the last 5 years. We cared for an elderly couple in their home . Until the passing of the husband and now we care for his wife. We provide 24 hour care privately in their home. Aroha is onshift when I am not on shift .
She is punctual , hardworking , caring , independent and extremely reliable. She is always on time ( usually 20 mins early ) to arrive for her shift. And is always happy to come early if I need her to.
Aroha stepped in to cover my full time shifts for 4 months when I broke my ankle . I never have any concerns when Aroha is on shift. I would highly recommend Aroha as a prospective tenant. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate in contacting me.

To whom it may concern Re:
I have known Aroha Sola since 7 th September 2019. She works for my homecare agency, Kate McLean Homecare, as a caregiver. I am the agency owner and her manager. Aroha is a kind and considerate person, who works in a position of trust as she cares 1:1 for elderly people who cannot look after themselves at home without assistance. Aroha is an asset to our agency, and I have never had to doubt her integrity. Aroha has proven herself time and again to be reliable, honest, and trustworthy. I have no hesitation in recommending Aroha for a rental, and would rent a property to her myself if I had one to rent. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you wish to discuss further. My contact number is 020 4006 1256.
Kind regards,
Aimee McLean General Manager Kate McLean Homecare
