Are you looking for a calm, rewarding role in a peaceful home environment? I am a friendly 55-year-old lady looking for a female Personal Assistant to support me with everyday living in my new home near Worthing Station.
I live with M.E., so creating a quiet, stress-free atmosphere is very important to me. This role would suit someone kind, patient, gentle-natured and respectful of the need for calm surroundings. Pleasant companionship and a positive homelife mean a great deal to me.
I enjoy simple, relaxing things such as feeding the birds and photographing them on my automatic trail camera, which I’m excited to set up in the garden of my new home. I would love to find someone who appreciates a peaceful environment and enjoys helping make a home feel comfortable and settled.
The position is part-time, with between 4 and 8 hours available each week. Visits are arranged in 2-hour shifts, either mornings or afternoons, offering flexibility to fit around other commitments.
The home is conveniently located near Worthing Station and close to bus stops, making travel easy. Free parking is also available.
Pay rates are £13.40 per hour on weekdays and £14.40 per hour on weekends.
If you are caring, reliable and would enjoy working in a calm and friendly environment, I would love to hear from you.
