About the job

Hi! I'm Nicole and I'm a 31-year-old woman. I use a motorized wheelchair and crutches to move around because I have cerebral palsy that creates tightness in my muscles. I work from home and am looking for a personal assistant to come by 2-3 days a week for a few hours at a time to help with errands, meal prep, tidying (dishes, sweeping, wiping down surfaces, throwing in laundry etc.), and some personal care. Personal care tasks include stretching, short walks, and assistance putting on socks/ shoes (I can bathe and toilet myself independently). I travel a good amount so scheduling can be flexible week by week. Someone with a car would be ideal because I may occasionally need transportation support to appointments. Additionally, physical therapy experience or experience helping a wheelchair user is preferred.
