Despite her personal responsibilities, she remains positive, energetic, and motivated to return to work in Singapore to support her family.

Fitriani’s first employment was with a Indonesian Chinese household comprising four members: Sir, Ma’am, a 7-year-old boy, and a 75-year-old Ah Mah who was physically weak and required assistance. She was responsible for preparing the child for school each morning, ensuring his uniform, shoes, socks, and school bag were clean and ready. Upon his return, she assisted with showering and prepared his meals. Her primary focus was caring for Ah Mah, supporting her with daily routines such as showering, toileting, dressing, feeding, and maintaining hygiene and mobility. She also managed marketing and cooked three meals daily. She maintained a clean and organized 3-bedroom, 2-toilet apartment, and walked/fed a small dog. The 74-year-old Ah Mah was infirm but generally healthy, while the 75-year-old Ah Kong was bedridden and required full assistance. Fitriani’s primary focus was on Ah Kong’s daily care, including feeding, toileting, dressing, and all activities of daily living. Each day, she gave him a bed bath by sponging him gently on the bed and washed his hair once a week to maintain hygiene. Twice a week, she assisted him to the bathroom for a thorough shower. Ah Mah handled the cooking, and Fitriani supported her by preparing ingredients and assisting in the kitchen. She also accompanied Ah Mah to the market regularly to purchase groceries. In addition to caregiving, Fitriani maintained a clean and hygienic 3-bedroom, 2-toilet flat, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for the elderly couple.

Fitriani is adept at cooking simple and nutritious Chinese meals suitable for elderly individuals, such as porridge, steamed fish, and stir-fried vegetables. She is also capable of preparing flavorful Chinese and Indonesian dishes for adults and children, including rendang, stew pork, soups, curries, and fried dishes.

Fitriani speaks conversational English, is fluent in Malay, and has a basic understanding of Mandarin & Hokkien.
