Home Care Companion

Job Description

Some of the most meaningful moments happen in the simplest ways, a conversation over a cup of coffee, a ride to an appointment, a trip to the grocery store, or just spending time with someone who would otherwise be alone.

At Daughter for Hire, our Care Companions help older adults remain independent and safe in the homes they love. More importantly, they provide companionship, connection, and peace of mind to both seniors and their families. If you enjoy spending time with older adults, have a compassionate heart, and are looking for flexible work that truly matters, we'd love to hear from you.

Daughter For Hire is seeking applicants for positions throughout Central Florida including the following areas:

·        Merritt Island

·        Dr. Phillips

·        Maitland

·       And MORE...

Daughter for Hire is different from a Home Health Care Agency. We do not provide personal or medical care. Our focus is strictly companion care and we provide non-medical in-home respite services that assist the elderly, give their families peace of mind, and make it possible for seniors to age in place and enjoy their golden years. Whether it's laundry, meal preparation, light housekeeping, or assistance with medical appointments, our bonded and insured care companions are there to help.

Daughter for Hire is recruiting part-time care companions in the Northeast Orlando Metropolitan area to help seniors in their homes. We are seeking individuals who have a desire to help others, can engage in conversations, can work well on a team, are punctual, and have excellent communication skills. Candidates should be able to follow instructions and perform a variety of tasks to help clients. Weekday and Weekend hours available - 6 hours minimum commitment per week.

Medical background or certification is NOT required! Our core criteria for hiring care companions is honesty, integrity, patience, caring nature, compassion, and a pleasing personality. Sometimes, a client visit can simply be spent sitting and chatting.
