Job Description
Summary
I am an outgoing single mother, and I am registered blind. I use a guide dog and have 4 children between the ages of 13 and 18.
I require help in the home with domestic duties and I have a small garden that requires some attention so an enjoyment in gardening (though limited to summer months) would be a bonus! I also require help with the children, helping with their homework tasks including art and reading material.
I enjoy home cooking but am unable to do much of this due to my vision so someone who enjoys to cook or bake would be good.
I also require help outside of the home – with the children as well as with me on my own.
I enjoy going to evening events (comedy nights / theatre) but need someone with me as I am unable to get around unfamiliar venues well.
I also need assistance with taking my guide dog to the park for his 'free run' a few times a week.
