Description
About the Client:
We're seeking a compassionate caregiver for an active 89-year-old gentleman living independently in Scarborough (Neilson and Eglinton area). He still drives, manages his own banking, and maintains his independence. He's passionate about baseball and football, tends to his koi pond, and stays current with world events. After a recent hospitalization for an aortic aneurysm repair, his family wants to ensure he has consistent companionship and light support while he continues his recovery at home.
Responsibilities:
- Provide warm companionship and engaging conversation, particularly around sports and current events
- Light meal assistance including reheating prepared meals and gentle reminders to eat properly
- Light housekeeping such as tidying common areas and making the bed
- Occasional light cleaning and organizing
- Monitor overall wellbeing and communicate any concerns to family
- Encourage social engagement and provide a friendly presence to combat loneliness
What We're Looking For:
- Male caregiver aged 45 who can relate to the client's interests and life experiences
- Solid interest in or knowledge of baseball and football
- Warm, patient, and calm demeanor with positive energy
- Reliable and consistent with excellent communication skills
- Takes initiative while respecting the client's independence
- English speaking (preference for South Asian, Sri Lankan, Indian, or Filipino background, though not required)
- Experience working with seniors who value their autonomy
Schedule:
Two visits per week,
3 hours each visit. Preferred days are Monday and Thursday mornings (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM or 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM). Schedule flexibility may be needed occasionally. This is a long-term position with the family seeking consistency and a genuine connection between caregiver and client. The client's niece lives in the home but has a busy schedule with university and coaching commitments, so she's not available for regular support during weekdays.

Additional Considerations
Client is an 89-year-old independent gentleman who drives and manages his own banking. Recently recovered from surgery for an aortic aneurysm. He enjoys baseball, football, and maintains a koi pond. Looking for an older male caregiver (40 years, ideally 45-60 years old) who can relate to his interests and provide companionship.
No personal care, bathing, or medical assistance required. Focus is on light meal preparation (reheating, plating food), ensuring proper nutrition, companionship, light tidying (making bed, vacuuming hallway/living room), and occasional conversation about sports and current events. Client values his independence and needs someone who respects that while providing gentle support and social engagement.
