Hi everyone! My name is Sonia Kaur, and I have been a proud member of the Harper Field Care Home team since April 2023. From the moment I stepped through the door, it felt like home.

I began my journey here as a kitchen assistant and have since focused on my passion for cooking, particularly in creating delightful cakes and desserts for birthday celebrations and special events. Working at Harper Fields has been a truly rewarding experience, thanks to the incredible support from my colleagues. I’m grateful to be part of a dedicated team that prioritises the well-being of our lovely residents.

Currently, I am pursuing a Level 2 qualification in baking while also exploring other culinary interests. One of my greatest joys is bringing smiles to residents' faces by making their wishes come true through my baking.

In my spare time, I enjoy experimenting with new baking ideas and setting challenges for myself to push my creative limits.
