I am a woman in my early 40’s seeking support to continue living independently in my community. I have a passion for all things musical. I attend many stage musicals, participate in a variety of choir and band commitments and love listening to music in my home. I am very active throughout the week, living a balanced life of work and enjoyment, volunteering in various roles and engaging in meaningful groups and community activities. I have some challenges with communicating verbally and need to repeat myself often to be fully understood, so patience is a required trait.

Supporting me in my home is extremely important to me. I have special places in my home where things need to be as I leave them. I like to feel like I am contributing to my home but need your assistance in prompting me. I am seeking people who make home feel like home. Friendly dispositions are a must. There are daily tasks required in supporting me and these include preparing meals and house duties.

I enjoy being around funny people, people who are not too serious all the time, but who understand the complexities of my supports and take those on. I have a wonderful family around me that I see often. Liasing with my coordinator and my parents to ensure everything is streamlined means you will need excellent communication skills.
