Our home is a safe, gentle space where we value authenticity, crafting, and creativity.
Please note the following requirements for our household:
– Safety: We are an immunocompromised household and a scent-free home (no perfumes or scented lotions). We require a caregiver who is comfortable masking while in the home or the car.
– Transportation: You will need to drive me, and occasionally my children, to appointments. This includes handling my mobility aids, such as a walker or lightweight wheelchair.
– Daily Tasks: Responsibilities include meal prep (healthy dishes like meat, rice, and vegetables), housework (vacuuming, dishes, laundry, light cleanup), and home organization.
– Animal Care: Assisting with feeding our pets.
– Physical Assistance: I require help with exercises, stretches, and mobility, including assistance getting in and out of bed or cars and loading lightweight mobility devices.
