Private PA Required

Sarah from Sunnyhills

My dad is a 70 year old stroke survivor and he is looking for a private personal assistant to job share. He lives in sunnyhills. The hours are within 10-1pm daily (usually around 2 hours). Ideally looking for someone to pickup the Tuesday/Wednesday although this can be flexible. Also looking for someone to do 1 hour on Sunday lunchtimes.

Duties are varied but can include;

Feeding the cat
Preparing lunch
Preparing dinner on occasion (plated and ready to be microwaved and served by someone else)
Some light housework like loading dishwasher, changing sheets, ironing (a cleaner is also employed)
Some driving to appointments may be required in his car
Some errands eg collecting prescriptions
Light office work such as printing, scanning, emailing
General tasks as required
No toileting or personal hygiene assistance required
Good initiative

Pay is $30 per hour paid daily and $50 for the Sunday 1 hour session. You are responsible for your own tax.

Experience or interest in working with the elderly or disabled would be beneficial but not required. We would love to meet you with a view to starting straight away.

Please email sarahfmeneses@gmail.com. No private messages please.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
