Job description

A rare opportunity for the right person: join the household team of an accomplished, witty, and fiercely independent woman who happens to be a quadriplegic - and who is looking for long‑term support.

Meet a successful philanthropist and well‑known innovator in her Main Line community - sharp, socially engaged, and someone who expects the same from the people around her. This is a non‑medical caregiving role woven with personal assistance, household coordination, and genuine companionship, for someone who is just as likely to have you at a Broadway show or lunch at Merion Golf Club as she is to have you tackling hands‑on caregiving.

BOBIcares is proud to help source candidates for this position. The successful candidate will be hired as a 1099 to start before transitioning to a W2 employee after committing to payroll.

What Makes This Role Different

• A true long‑term placement, not a revolving‑door assignment
• A predictable live‑in schedule, every other week - four days on, 10 days off: Sunday 9:00 PM - Thursday 12:00 PM
• Paid downtime built into the job - yes, that includes an afternoon nap, studying for an exam, or catching up on your favorite show
• A home environment that values discretion, intelligence, and personality as much as reliability
• She's active, curious, and genuinely fun to be around - this is relationship‑driven work, not just task‑driven work

What You'll Do

• Provide day‑to‑day personal care, including safe lifting and wheelchair transfers (~90 lbs, multiple times daily - full training provided)
• Support household management and light administrative work
• Accompany her to social, cultural, and community engagements
• Drive a wheelchair‑accessible minivan for errands and outings
• Balance warmth and sociability with good judgment about when to step back

What We're Looking For

• Someone who presents well and communicates clearly, both written and verbal
• Warm, kind, and easygoing - with the discretion to handle a private household
• Physically able to perform transfers and lifting as described, after training
• Comfortable driving a minivan
• Non‑smoker with a valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• Able to pass a background check, provide strong references, and confirm vaccination status
• BA/BS in progress or completed is a plus, not a requirement
• Genuine interest in a long‑term commitment

Compensation & Benefits

• $480 per 24‑hour shift($20/hour)
• Annual pay increases
• Bonus pay opportunities
• Time‑and‑a‑half for holidays worked
• Paid vacation days after a 90‑day introductory period
