Ideally we are looking for a couple . One person would be a full time house cleaner plus assisting with dinner parties doing prep and clean up . It is a large dusty house and needs a full time housekeeper . Various jobs in that position might include cleaning silver, throwing out old flowers and washing vases, keeping front porch clean and presentable, ironing, loading dishwasher and putting clean dishes away, cleaning ovens and the usual house cleaning duties.
We also need a handyman who can do yard work as well .
In exchange we are offering a newly renovated two bedroom suite with cable and internet as well as utilities included. The apartment has a TV and a washer and dryer . The apartment is in my son's house across town so the couple would have to have their own transportation or rely on the bus system .
We are looking for a couple that would make a long term commitment to our offered positions . We would like the couple to eventually be able to know what needs to be done and take care of all the tasks as if they are caring for their own place.
We have two budgie birds and caring for them when we are away would also be required. The handyman would know how to fix things and be handy with all aspects of home care and repair and yard work .
Both must be able to take instruction well .
These positions require that both people be strong and in good health . We are looking for non-smokers.
Working at my son's or daughter's house cleaning and doing yard work may also be required .
The brand new suite rents for $2, 200. a month but it would be supplied plus a starting wage of $1000. each per month .
We are looking for a compatible fit to our family that is a reliable long term situation.
It isn't possible to list all of the duties that may be asked of the employees but I hope the idea of the responsibilities of running a large household and properties is understood in what I have explained.
We are looking forward to finding a hard working team that becomes part of our family for years to come.
