PA for mother nr Swaffham @ £15 p/h, 5 hrs p/w Jobshare.
Apply at UKCIL.com. Reference: a0f7d1cb
Job purpose:I'm at 34 yr old mother who has recently been diagnosed with M.E amongst other things. This means daily life has changed for me drastically. I'm still coming to terms with my new life and so would like someone non-judgemental, understanding and kind, to support me in being the best mum I can to my child.
I'm in a rural village location, 15 mins from town and ideally I'm looking for someone needing just an extra few hours a week to top them up as unfortunately at the moment I cannot offer many hours.
My plan is 2 hours on a morning, on either a Tues or Thurs, then 1.5 hours on two evenings at around 5/5.30.
This can be changed to 1 hour evening calls with a 3 hour morning call if needed, or 2 hour morning call, with three evenings of 1 hour.
The evening calls are to prepare, cook and serve a meal for us both.
This can be an employed, or self-employed position. Obviously the wages will change for this. (£18.81 self-employed with correct insurance etc)
Experience of children is a must.
Duties will be varied depending on my condition that day, but the main tasks will be helping me keep on top of my house, helping my child and I eat well, and becoming a friend for us both.I used to enjoy a 'normal' life, enjoying fitness, socialising, the outdoors and exploring.
Feel free to message with any questions.
'The main duties of this role will include preparing, cooking and serving nutritional meals, domestic care, such as hoovering, laundry and general household cleaning, assisting me to parent my toddler, occasional errands, such as picking up my prescriptions and nipping to the local shop, assisting with trips out where possible.
