Personal Assistant Wanted

I am a lively and cheerful 17-year-old teenager living with my family and our cat, about 20 minutes from the center of Gothenburg. I am now looking for a personal assistant with a big heart who wants to support me in my daily life and development – and who enjoys doing fun things together with me!

About Me:

I love music, playing instruments with my eyes, moving, hanging out with friends, and being outdoors. Right now, I am focusing a lot on playing music with my eyes, which I find super fun!

I have cerebral palsy and need support in all everyday situations – from accompanying me to activities to helping me interact in social contexts. I communicate using Bliss and body language, and I understand both Swedish and English. To help you understand me better, there is an opportunity to take training as an assistant.

My family and I enjoy traveling, so it’s a plus if you are open to joining us sometimes!

About You:

I am looking for a lively and cheerful girl, smoke- and tobacco-free, who is flexible and enjoys being active. It is important that you are communicative and social – being able to communicate with me is crucial for us to get along. The work is physical, so you need to have good physical ability.

Fluent Swedish is a requirement, as you need to help me communicate with my surroundings.

It is an advantage if you have a driver’s license and experience or interest in, for example, massage, physiotherapy, or osteopathy.

Scope:

I am looking for someone who can work a few weekdays per week from 14:00 and some weekends.

Start Date:

Immediately.
