I am looking for a caring, reliable and encouraging Personal Assistant to support me during weekday evenings in my home.
I'm quite a quiet lady who likes peace, so am looking for a PA who is kind and understanding.
The role will involve helping me with evening meals.
Depending on how I am feeling on the day, this may mean supporting me to prepare and cook a meal alongside you, or cooking something for me when I need a little extra help.
I would also like support twice a week on Mondays and Wednesdays while I take a bath.
The PA would remain in the house during this time to provide reassurance and assistance if needed, helping me to feel secure and confident.
There would also be days i would need light housework and washing up doing for me.
On days when I am feeling well and there is time available, I would love to get out for a gentle walk or spend some time pottering around in the garden as I enjoy nature very much, so an interest in supporting these activities would be welcomed.
I am looking for someone who is:
Caring, patient and understanding.
Reliable and trustworthy.
Encouraging and supportive.
Versatile and able to adapt to my needs on the day.
Respectful of my independence and choices.




This is a rewarding opportunity to support me in maintaining my independence, wellbeing and enjoyment of everyday activities in and around my home.
