? A Meaningful Caregiving Opportunity — From Your Own Home
Home Share Provider – Comox Valley
Excellent Compensation • Generous Time Off • Meaningful Work
We are a small, family-led nonprofit looking for a kind, capable and dependable caregiver for a much-loved middle-aged woman with cerebral palsy and a developmental disability.
She has a great sense of humour, a warm personality and enjoys being around people. We are looking for someone who will genuinely enjoy spending time with her and helping her live a happy, active life.
She uses a walker indoors and a wheelchair in the community.
She would move into and share your home, where you would provide a safe, welcoming environment and support her with personal care, daily routines and living a full, active and enjoyable life.
She attends a day program Monday through Friday and has regular respite weekends with another care provider, giving the Home Share Provider regular personal time and built-in breaks.
We are looking for someone who can make this their primary professional commitment. The position requires flexibility and availability and would not suit someone maintaining another regular job.
We’re Looking for Someone Who Is:
- Professional, dependable and highly organized
- Warm, caring, patient and genuinely enjoys working with people
- Physically able to safely assist with mobility and day-to-day care
- An excellent communicator and comfortable using a computer
- Independent, confident and able to make sound decisions
- Able to work collaboratively with family and a support team
- Comfortable managing appointments, schedules, forms and documentation
- Able to provide a suitable level-entry home (or 1–2 steps) in the Comox Valley
- A licensed driver with a reliable four-door vehicle
Relevant caregiving experience is required. Experience in disability support is strongly preferred, but backgrounds in healthcare, home care, senior care, nursing or a related field will also be considered.
This is a unique opportunity to do meaningful work from your own home while making a real difference in someone’s life.
Compensation is very competitive and reflects the responsibility and importance of the role.
