Developmental Support Worker / Personal Support Worker / Certified Nursing Assistant / Health Care Aide - Aurora, ON - CAD$108.00/week
Description
About the Clients:
We're seeking a compassionate caregiver to support a couple in their early eighties who recently moved into a small condo in Aurora. Mom is managing cancer and uses a walker for mobility, while Dad is still active but finding household tasks increasingly challenging. They're adjusting to independent condo living and value maintaining their autonomy while receiving the right level of support. Both are open to care but prefer a gentle, respectful approach that honors their independence.
Responsibilities:
- Light housekeeping and cleaning of their small condo (approximately 1 hour per visit)
- Laundry assistance as needed
- Accompanying Mom on walks around the neighborhood, to the nearby park, or to the local senior center
- Providing companionship and engaging conversation
- Assisting with chair fitness activities in the building's gym when appropriate
- Occasional transportation for errands or appointments
- Building a trusting relationship that can grow as care needs evolve over time
What We're Looking For:
- Experience supporting multiple clients or couples preferred
- Calm, patient demeanor with strong interpersonal skills
- Ability to make clients feel comfortable while respecting their independence
- Reliable and consistent with excellent communication
- Takes initiative and brings positive energy to each visit
- Comfortable with light mobility support (Mom uses a walker)
- Understanding that this role will start small but may increase in hours as the relationship develops
Schedule:
We're looking for someone available for two visits per week, approximately 2 hours per visit (4 hours total weekly). Preferred days are Monday and Thursday, ideally between 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM, though we're open to caregiver availability within reasonable afternoon hours. Flexibility is appreciated as we establish the best routine for everyone.
This is an excellent chance for a caregiver who values building long-term relationships and growing with a family's changing needs. The couple lives in a pleasant neighborhood with easy access to parks and community resources, making outings enjoyable and straightforward.

Additional Considerations
Client needs support for both elderly parents (early 80s) living in a small condo. Mother has cancer and uses a walker, requiring assistance getting out for walks and activities. Father is still independent but needs help with household tasks. They are adjusting to condo living and prefer gentle, patient support that respects their independence. Previous caregiver experience was positive but unavailable due to surgery.
