Vacant job

I am a 17-year-old girl who needs both sign language interpretation and physical and verbal support in my daily life. Currently, I am looking for a personal assistant who can work some fixed shifts with me but also be available for extra hours when needed.

I am an energetic and cheerful girl who, like most teenagers, enjoys being active on social media. I also love music and baking. I have a dog that I adore and enjoy spending time with.

Here is what I am looking for in you as my assistant:

• Since I have a dog, you must not be allergic to dogs or afraid of them.
• You need to be physically fit as the job involves assisting me with mobility and transfers.
• Since my energy levels vary from day to day, it is important that you are attentive and interested in trying to understand and get to know me so that you can support me in the best way possible at any given moment.
• It would be a big plus if you, like me, enjoy baking!

Previous experience as a personal assistant is advantageous but not a requirement. Most important is personal suitability and that we get along!

Scope: Part-time and extra as needed. Approximately 6 hours per day during the summer holiday. There is an opportunity for work also after the summer.

Start date: According to agreement
