I'm a mum of three looking for a kind, reliable Personal Assistant to support me for 3 hours a week with everyday tasks and a little personal care. I’m chatty, love a cuppa, a tidy home, and styled hair.

I spend most of my time at home with my baby and young children – I’m definitely a homebody! I enjoy reading, my Islamic classes, and playing with the little ones, but I live with PTSD, anxiety, and daily physical pain, which makes some tasks hard to keep on top of. I also have significant mobility issues, so a bit of practical support makes a big difference.

I’d love someone to help motivate me with light domestic tasks, batch cooking, wash and style my hair, and give me reminders for medication and appointments. It’s really about helping me feel a bit more like myself again and keeping things ticking over at home.

Ideally, I’d like the support to be spread across 3 short shifts, but 2 longer ones could work too – during the school day when the house is less busy.

If you’re caring, friendly, and love a chat while getting things done, I’d love to hear from you!
