Hello! I’m a 37-year-old full-time wheelchair user with Cerebral Palsy, living in Hastings, with my lovely husband and are expecting our first baby in February!
I’m looking for a female P.A. to help me with my morning routine while my partner is at work. Hours are Monday to Friday, 7am–10am (15 hours a week), starting in the new year (2026), with shadowing offered in December.
The job is based in Hastings and pays £12.21 per hour, plus 5.6 weeks’ paid holiday a year and bank-holiday enhancements.
About the job:
You’ll be helping me get ready for the day — including personal care, such as baths and using a hoist. No experience is needed (though it’s a bonus); full training will be provided.
Once my baby arrives, I’ll still be the one caring for my little one, but the routine may change slightly — your role will be to support me while I do that. This might include helping with tasks that make feeding, changing, and other morning baby routines more manageable for me.
As my child grows, the role may later include things like morning school runs, so a full, clean driving licence is essential.
A DBS check and full training will be provided for the right person.
If you’re kind, reliable, and up for helping me start my mornings with a smile, I’d love to hear from you!
Duties include:
- Assist with morning routine
- Help with baby care when the little one arrives
