Are you someone who values building genuine connections and enjoys making a positive impact in someone’s life? I’m looking for a supportive, proactive, and easy-going personal assistant to help me boost my confidence, explore new hobbies, and manage day-to-day tasks.

I am a 23-year-old woman with epilepsy and ADHD looking for a special someone to support me to build my confidence and pursue new interests and hobbies and to help me with household tasks as and when needed.

I require someone to be around when I bathe my 22 old month son son as a precaution due to my epilepsy. He also has epilepsy. I need assistance prompting me with personal grooming tasks such as showering and washing my hair, as well as help to budget and make sure my bills are paid on time, support with shopping, planning nutritious meals and batch cooking.

I am looking for a reliable, proactive and easy-going PA, someone I can connect with on a personal level who shares similar interests with myself, to help me improve my confidence and wellbeing, so I feel more in control of my life.

A car driver is preferable, but not essential as I have a travel card for local buses.

I do smoke but not in my home.

Personal grooming
