Hello!
We are excited that you are interested in the position of companion or respite caregiver with us! We are looking for individuals who want to work a few extra hours each week! We offer a meaningful and varied assignment where you can truly make a difference while providing someone else with a brighter experience in life.
What do you get?
• A rewarding and flexible assignment that can be tailored to fit your daily routine
• Hourly compensation and reimbursement for expenses
• Introduction and support from our coordinator to help you grow into your role
The assignment involves supporting both adults and children with disabilities through the services of companionship or respite care. The schedules and visits are adapted to the client’s needs and your availability. You may have one or several assignments of varying intensity, starting from two hours per week and more.
Respite Care
As a respite caregiver, you will relieve guardians and take over the supervision and care of the child. You assist with daily routines, foster social interaction, and engage in activities that are part of everyday life. You contribute to an improved quality of life for the whole family and provide guardians with the essential opportunity for recovery. Respite takes place in the client's home or nearby.
Companionship
As a companion, you accompany the client out into the community as support during leisure activities, cultural experiences, café visits, errands, or walks. The aim is to enable a socially active life based on the client’s own capabilities and wishes.
Who are we looking for?
We are seeking individuals who have a genuine commitment to working with people. You are dependable, relationship-oriented, and have an easy time collaborating. Previous experience with children or adults with disabilities is a significant plus. Currently, we are primarily looking for respite caregivers for younger children, but new assignments are continuously coming in.
This role is also suitable for those who already have another job – it is a flexible part-time position that makes a big difference.
