[ref. b67610020] Personal Assistant & Lifestyle Enthusiast
Hey there,
I'm on the hunt for an awesome female caregiver to join my crew of support superstars. I need a hand with some daily stuff I can't do myself due to my physical situation. No prior experience required, because we'll give you all the training you need on the job.
About me: I'm in my 40s and rock a full-time gig in the IT world. You'll usually find me zipping around in my electric wheelchair, and I could use a hand with most physical tasks. My interests? They're a pretty eclectic mix – from reading and devouring food to whipping up some culinary magic, exploring new places, playing around with makeup and fashion, cranking up the tunes, belting out karaoke, binge-watching movies, and I'm a skincare enthusiast.I share my space with my partner and three cool cats in the Hamilton, Fitzroy area. If you're an animal lover, that's a bonus! I'm a bit of a neat freak, so keeping things clean and hygienic is a big deal to me.
You'll kick things off with a base pay of at least $25 an hour and a fixed rate for overnight shifts (equivalent to 7 hours). So, be sure to keep that in mind before you dive into this gig.
Here's the lowdown on the shifts I might need your help with:
- 10am – 1pm on weekends
- 5pm – 8pm
- 11:30am – 1pm on weekdays
- Overnight sleepovers (8.30pm to 8:30am on weekdays and 8:30pm to 10am on weekends – fixed rate)
- Outings and shopping shifts have some flexibility
Your role might change from shift to shift, but here are some of the things you could be doing:
- Helping me freshen up
- Throwing down in the kitchen
- Assisting with meal prep
- Joining me on grocery runs
- Taking the wheel of the van
- Keeping the crib clean
- Providing overnight care
- Looking after my feline pals
- Keeping an eye on the house
Here's the kicker: I weigh around 45kgs, and there might be times when you need to lift me, even though we do have a hoist for lifting. So, being physically fit is a must!
So, along with your CV, send over a cover letter telling me why you're up for this gig and when you're available for the shifts mentioned. I'm all about the vibes, so I want to know about you as a person. If you've got a positive attitude, similar interests, and can commit to hard honest work, you're the one I'm looking for.I've got a few students on my squad who do part-time shifts. This role is also perfect for mums who have some time to help out during the day. If you're after a full-time gig, this might not be the right fit. Looking forward to hearing from you – let's make some cool memories together!
