Assistance is required to help cook wholesome family meals. Housework including laundry, bed changing, and hoovering.

A flexible approach around school hours will be considered with this post and there would be the occasional evening shift that may need covered.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The lady has been unwell for some time and is trying find her way back to being seen as an individual and looks forward to being supported in getting out and about with some support to build her confidence. She enjoys nature, swimming, and quiet spaces, she does not like busy places. The odd night away may happen given time, so be aware this could be part of your role.
The hours would be to support in the mornings, getting dressed and ready for the day, some light housework. Teatime cooking and support in getting ready to settle for the evening. The hours may change dependent on the school holidays, but an advanced rota would be discussed and given a couple of weeks in advance. The lady uses an electric wheelchair so moving and handling experience would be advantageous; training can be given.
