We are a private family seeking a reliable, warm in-home carer to support an elderly family member in our own home while we are at work. This is a direct engagement with us as your employer — not an agency placement — and you would be the sole carer present during rostered hours. Hours are Monday to Friday, 9:30 am to 6:00 pm, with a one-hour unpaid meal break (37.5 hours per week). Our family member is comfortably independent for periods during the day, so the role includes natural quiet time. Part time options and/or a live-in arrangement with separate private accommodation is available and can be discussed — this is optional and is a separate arrangement to your wages.
Key responsibilities
Companionship, conversation and general supervision throughout the day
Assistance with personal care,
mobility and medication prompting
Preparing meals and light household duties
Accompanying the elderly to appointments (if applicable)
Keeping us informed of any changes in well-being
About you

Reliability and discretion in a private home
Valuable spoken and written English
Current driver's licence (preferred)
Willingness to obtain a National Police Check and First Aid/CPR certificate (we will meet the cost)
