Full Job Description

Caregiver and Household Helper for My Mom

Location: South Dayton / Springboro, OH (on-site)

Pay: $25 to $30/hour starting, based on experience

Schedule: Mix of scheduled hours and PRN, flexible, including some weekends

Hi, I'm James. I'm hiring on behalf of my mom, Barb. She lives alone near Springboro and is heading into surgery soon. I'm based in Colorado, so I'm getting this search started now to have the right person ready when she's back home.

Barb is in her late 70s, widowed about a year and a half ago. She's quiet, kind, faithful, and easy to be around. She isn't paralyzed and doesn't need transfers, but she'll be weak after surgery and will need real help with daily life for a stretch. The exact start date is still moving, so I'd like the right person lined up and ready.

She also has cats. She loves them. She just doesn't need them landing on her head while she's trying to sleep.

The Role

Helping her in and out of bed and around the house while she's recovering
Personal care as needed
Meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking food that supports her health
Light cleaning, laundry, and keeping the house in order
Cat care: feeding, litter, basic attention
Pharmacy runs and medication reminders
Errands and appointments
Being a steady, kind presence in the house

Some hours will be regular, some PRN, and the shape will shift with her recovery. The more flexible your availability, the more hours I can offer.

What I Need

Calm and steady. Warmth without a lot of noise.
Genuinely kind. Someone who actually likes older people.
Reliable. If you commit to a shift, you're there.
A real communicator. Going quiet is the fastest way for this to fall apart.
Self-directed. Notice what needs doing and handle it.
A good cook, or at least someone who enjoys preparing simple, healthy meals.
Comfortable with cats.
English-speaking, valid driver's license, reliable transportation.
Some caregiving or healthcare experience, ideally with older adults.

Who This Isn't For

People who want shift work where you show up, follow a checklist, and leave.
High-energy personalities. Mom is gentle and quiet, and the right caregiver will be too.
Anyone with very limited availability.
People applying to everything they see right now. I'd rather hear from one person who read this carefully and felt like it fit.

How to Apply

Complete the application form at https://jamespeth.com/help-barb. Take your time with it. I read every application personally. Mom will likely need help for a long time, so I'm looking for someone who wants to be in this for the long haul.

James Peth (hiring on behalf of my mom, Barb)

Pay: $25.00 - $30.00 per hour

Work Location: In person
