Jamie Laughton
Support Worker
My previous experience as a youth worker at Nautilus Community College has led me to support work and to WEmpower. My journey in this field, nearing its one-year mark, is fueled by a desire to enrich lives and alleviate loneliness.
My personal life is a blend of outdoor adventures and family connections. I am an avid enthusiast of fishing, beach activities, and bodyboarding, often spending quality time with friends, my partner, and my dog.
In support work, I try my best to go beyond mere companionship. My aim is to enrich the lives of our clients, helping them fully embrace life's experiences. I take pride in being an attentive listener and a helpful presence, always eager to assist my clients in achieving their goals and more. I cherish the individual stories of each of my clients, finding joy in the diversity of experiences they bring.
I am easy-going and approachable, and I tailor my services to the unique preferences of each client, encouraging them to try new things, from diverse foods to novel activities, and to be open about their lives.
Living independently, with plans to soon unite with my girlfriend and her son, and my two adult children, family and relationships form the cornerstone of my life.
At WEmpower, my commitment is not just professional; it's personal. I strive each day to bring positivity and meaningful support to those in our care.
