We are looking for personal assistants as hourly substitutes for day and evening, as well as an hourly employee for a wakeful night. The assignment involves a two-year and seven-month-old girl with a tracheostomy in Mörby, Danderyd. The girl's needs require supervision and interventions around the clock by two assistants simultaneously, as the tracheostomy means she needs help with breathing. The girl also has a gastrostomy button (G-tube) used for feeding.

The residence has good connections by subway and buses. The family's home is located close to Mörby Centrum.
