“In search of kind, experienced, and playful occasional date night babysitters for our spunky 9 and 7 year old kids for the remainder of the summer, fall, and beyond.  We do not have a set schedule in mind, but do have a couple of upcoming dates (8/16 specifically).

* not mind handling diaper changes for our youngest

* take care of light household tasks (tidy up the toys after playing- involving the kids too as appropriate)

* have reliable transportation, be CPR/First Aid aware (if not certified)

* be available for 3-4 hours one day a week as well as occasional evenings

* be comfortable doing bedtime routine with the kids on occasional evenings

Per diem or part-time PCA / caregiver Somerville, MA

Looking to hire someone for per diem and/or part time relief care for a disabled adult with chronic illness. Help would include meal prep (lunch and dinner), kitchen clean up, and possibly some light housework.  Hours are flexible as we are looking to give my partner a break from caretaking – likely 1-2 afternoons or evenings per week if PT. Per diem schedule would be random weekends (full days) but infrequent (every few months).

I’m mid 30s living in Somerville MA between Davis Square and Porter Square.  Kind, understanding, and a queer friendly person. We have a 1 year old dog who is social and sweet.  I’m a non smoker but don’t care if you are.  I am fully vaccinated and request you are too as I am immunocompromised.

This would be a good opportunity for a pre-med/nursing student to get some patient care hours.  I am a trained medical provider myself and happy to chat about the profession!
