I'm friendly and chatty. I love clothes, I have far too many! I take great pride in my appearance, probably too much.
My take on life is a fairly positive one, I try to make the best of everything. I enjoy chair yoga and gentle exercise but I really enjoy watching tv (period) drama and films. I also enjoy watching live amateur youth Musicals. I am a committee member of BMYP! If you know, you'll know! I'm also quite crafty and I love stationary! I also (weirdly) love paperwork!!!
I live with my husband and my 18-year-old daughter, it was supporting her that brought me to youth theatre.
I don't get out much as I'd like and would love to go out for lunch with a new friend.
I would like my new PA to become part of our family team as well as helping me to organise and run our home. Our daughter is our world, family is very important to me. As are our cats.
I'm looking for a reliable, compassionate and organised Personal Assistant (PA) to help support me with daily care needs. I need someone to assist me in maintaining my independence.
