Caregiver/Household Assistant

t-Time Caregiver / Household Assistant
$17–$21 per hour | Flexible Scheduling | Daytime & Evening Hours

Are you a dependable, caring person who enjoys helping others and would appreciate a flexible part-time position in a pleasant, home-like environment?

We are a small residential care home seeking a reliable, mature and compassionate person to assist our residents with everyday activities and household tasks. Our residents range in age from approximately 50 to 80 and benefit from a little extra help, companionship and support to live their best lives.

This can be an excellent position for an experienced caregiver, CNA, retiree, or mature student who is comfortable with household responsibilities and enjoys working with people.

Typical responsibilities include:

• Light cooking and meal preparation
• Light housekeeping and cleaning
• Companionship and conversation
• Medication preparation/assistance according to established procedures
• Standby assistance with showers
• Changing bed linens and other light household tasks
• Helping maintain a comfortable, safe and pleasant home environment
• Occasionally letting our two friendly house dogs outside, refreshing their water, and assisting with simple pet-care tasks

Training will be provided for our specific systems, procedures and resident needs.

Schedule

We offer considerable scheduling flexibility. Shifts are available seven days a week between approximately 7:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m.

Depending upon the needs of the home and the employee's availability, shifts may range from approximately 2 to 12 hours. Some weekend availability is needed.

We are happy to discuss a schedule that works well for both you and the home.

Who we're looking for

We are especially interested in someone who is:

• Dependable and takes pride in showing up as scheduled
• Kind, patient and respectful
• Comfortable working independently
• Capable with ordinary household tasks
• Comfortable around dogs and willing to provide occasional simple pet care
• Interested in getting to know and helping the people who live in our home
• Able to provide employment references

CNA or caregiving experience is helpful, but the right personality, reliability and willingness to learn are equally important.

Applicants must be able to pass Wisconsin-required background and health checks.

This is a smoke-free property.

We generally look for applicants who can demonstrate a history of reliability, including approximately two years of consistent employment or other comparable experience. Mature students and retirees are welcome to apply.

Pay: $17.00–$21.00 per hour, depending upon experience and qualifications. A special training wage may apply during the initial training period.

Job Type: Part-time

Benefits:

• Flexible schedule
• Professional development assistance
• Meaningful work in a small, home-like setting
• Training provided

Interested?

We are looking for people who are genuinely interested in this position rather than simply submitting applications to meet a quota.

If we both feel it may be a good match, we'll schedule an in-person meeting so you can see the home, learn more about the position, and decide whether you could see yourself becoming a valued part of our team.

If you're dependable, kind, comfortable in a home environment and enjoy helping people who need a little assistance to live their best lives, we'd be happy to hear from you.
