I am looking for a compassionate, reliable, and dedicated housekeeper to assist with daily living activities and maintain a clean and comfortable home environment for my mother. The role involves a combination of light housekeeping duties and a small amount of personal care.
The position requires 3-4 hours of work per week, with flexible hours, and there is potential for the role to increase based on needs. My mother resides in a self-catering annex of our home, and you will be working alongside myself to ensure her well-being and help manage household tasks.
While my mother’s needs are minimal at present, this role combines light personal care (about 45 minutes per day) with general housekeeping duties for the main house. The key responsibilities include:
•Housekeeping: Regular cleaning of the main house, including dusting, vacuuming, and bathroom maintenance.
•Ironing: Light ironing of clothing and linens.
•Pet Care: Caring for a small, well-behaved dog and two cats (feeding, occasional walks, and ensuring they are safe).
•Meal Preparation: Simple meal preparation for my mother, ensuring her nutritional needs are met.
•Personal Care: Assisting with light personal care for my mother, including dressing and mobility support, if needed.
The ideal candidate should be comfortable with pets and able to provide a mix of low-level care alongside typical housekeeping duties.

Preferred Skills & Language:
