Hi! I am a working mum to my lovely four-year-old, who needs you to help me live my life to the fullest. I would describe myself as a positive and creative person but have gone through a very tough few years, where my disabilities and mobility has got a lot worse and looking for an energetic, enthusiastic person to be the special person to our family.
As a single mum, my daughter is my absolute world. She would describe me as fun, imaginative, loving and giving. I do my best to give her everything an able bodied mum can and at the same time bring together friends, family and be active in my local community. My friends would describe me as a bubbly person
who brings the fun and sparkle to whatever is going on but in recent years things have become really challenging as my disabilities have worsened.
If you’re a can do, active person who loves ‘Sort your life out’, getting organised, getting things straightened out and can make the practical things are not piling up, you’re the person we need. If you can step in on the bad days, when pain and fatigue cause me to have a full stop, and can use your skills and enthusiasm to help me get the most of out the good days, you’re exactly the
person we need.
My auto-immune condition means that I have restricted mobility, fatigue which can just wipe me out, chronic pain and brain fogging, so taking care of everything and a little person, can be overwhelming.
Hopefully with your practical help, positivity and enthusiasm combined with mine, I can get things properly back on track.
It doesn’t matter whether you have previous care experience, the qualities I look for are an ability to learn quickly, caring, sensitive, organised, and can think on your feet.
A driver would a great benefit, but this is not essential.
