Meet Our Team

Krystyna Bosko

General Manager

What I do:
Dear Visitor! I would like to welcome you to my lovely Care Home Earlsfield Court in Bexhill-on- Sea. It is a privilege to be the first general manager of this new care home run by Cinnamon Care Collection in East Sussex. I am aiming to lead Earlsfield Court to become the home of first choice for residential and residential dementia care. I believe that we will earn respect in our local community for the way how we care as we call ourselves care home like no other.

Experience:
My professional background is nursing, teaching and coaching which lead me to long term career of general manager in social care for over 15 years. My passion for nursing began 33 years ago. From that time, I started to recognise that if I would develop myself and study more, I can become a leader who will be able to help more people who need love and care because of their medical condition. At the same time, I learned that being in charge and working with a team of people who choose to share my passion I can also support them by sharing my knowledge and experience. I believe my role is to lead by example which means kindness, respect and professional approach to all the situations which can happen in everyday care home life.

About me:
Love and serve. This sentence has been my motto since the beginning of my career. I am a very positive person who likes travelling around the world and learning different cultures and languages. I am the admirer of Jane Austen literature and classical music lover. I consider myself being the achiever, not only a dreamer.

Sandy Hamblyn

Home Admissions Advisor

What do I do:

My role is to welcome people into our beautiful home and help them through what is often a very emotional time of their life; choosing a care environment for themselves or a family member. I feel very fortunate to be a part of the Cinnamon Care Collection team, working with such passionate and dedicated people who want to make a real difference to our residents’ lives. Everything we do is about getting the little things right for our residents, so they are safe and have the greatest quality of life for their time.

Experience:

I have been working in the care sector for over 10 years, initially as an office manager and then for the last six years as a home admission adviser for another care provider. After working as a tax adviser and then owning my own jewellery business, I feel I have finally found my niche and I love working in this role.

About me:
I met my husband when I was sixteen. We have been married for 30 years now and have three grown up children. I am very lucky to have such a fantastic family and a great circle of friends with whom I enjoy socialising. In my spare time I enjoy running, yoga, going to the gym and generally keeping fit however my main passion is golf – I just can’t get enough of it!

Karen Rye

Administrator

What I do:
I feel very lucky to be the Administrator for Earlsfield Court – it’s a very busy, varied role covering all aspects of Finance and HR and I enjoy supporting the rest of our first class team as we care for our residents.

Experience:
I am a qualified Certified Accountant and worked in London for many years initially for a top 6 accountancy firm and then at Madame Tussauds and the London Eye. Following a short career break to look after my son and daughter full-time before they started school, I was fortunate to find a finance role in a local primary school where I spent over 15 happy years. Although the Care industry is new to me many aspects of this job are very similar to working in a school – it’s just that we are caring for the parents rather than the children and the surroundings are much more luxurious!

About me:
We moved to Bexhill-on-Sea almost two years ago and when I’m not at work I like to relax by cycling or walking our two dogs along the front if the weather is nice or curling up with a good book or box-set if it’s not.
