This includes hoisting out of bed, toileting, showering, dressing, passive leg stretches, making me glam to face the day and getting my breakfast / lunch (which is my main meal).
Some housework is included. No heavy lifting involved, but this a physical job. Full training will be given. The position starts in early July, but there may be some flexibility. Oh, and by the way my husband lives with me! We are both retired, but always busy!!
Starting rate in the vicinity of $25 p/h. I am funded by MoH. through Manawanui.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
