We are seeking 1–2 Care Companions to join their team on a part‑time, self‑employed basis, supporting clients across the local area. The role focuses on helping people remain independent, comfortable and socially connected.

Due to the personal nature of support required by some clients (e.g., help with dressing, getting in and out of the shower, etc.), a female Care Companion is required for this role to maintain privacy and dignity.

If you are caring, reliable and genuinely enjoy supporting others, we would love to hear from you.
