Are you a caring, reliable and proactive person who enjoys making a real difference? I am looking for a Personal Assistant to join my support team and help me live independently while being there for me and my family.
I am a 38-year-old mum with a disability that causes fatigue and chronic pain. My condition can vary from day to day, so the level of support I need can change. I am looking for someone who is understanding, flexible and able to adapt to my needs.
The role will include supporting me with personal care such as showering, household tasks, preparing meals and accessing the community. You will also support me in my role as a mum to my two children, aged 11 and 12, helping us get out and about and making everyday family life easier.
Experience with children would be beneficial but is not essential. What is important is that you are kind, patient, respectful and able to use your initiative.
A full driving licence and your own car are essential, as you will need to support me and my children with getting out into the community.
This is a varied and rewarding role where you can make a genuine difference to my independence and quality of life. If you are caring, dependable and enjoy helping others, I would love to hear from you.
Duties include:
- Supporting me physically with my two children and their needs e.g. bathing, dressing, meals etc.
Candidate qualities:
- Must be comfortable with pets as I have a big dog and a Bengal cat
