Good day to you,
I am looking to find someone available to work a full time schedule caring for an 89 year old man at his home in McLean. He is a very bright man, who enjoys reading his papers and generally learning about anything. With his age he has physical alignments that keep him from being very active. The person in his life would be expected to drive him to and from appointments, help prepare food, do general house clean up, and listen to stories about a life well lived.
Please call me, and also email a resume,
Rob 435-962-4540 rob3sixt@gmail.com

With advance notice we can be flexible about weeks or days where you may already have vacation planned.
Typical day activities will include going to the swimming pool, playing games, active play/exercise, arts and crafts, doing some school work, and supporting our daughter in activities that build independence and life skills like fixing her own lunch and tying her shoes. We live in the Haycock Elementary area of Falls Church, very close to N. Arlington and Marymount Campus.

We're looking for a part-time caregiver for our 2.5 yr old son, for Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays 1pm-6pm. We live in Arlington, 4 miles from the main campus and 2 miles from the Ballston campus. You will meet my son as he gets off the bus around 1:30pm and be with him for the afternoon, and he will likely nap for a couple of hours so you will have free time. He is a very sociable, happy, and interactive little guy with developmental delays (not walking or talking yet), but super easy to look after. If you're studying to become a special education teacher, teacher, nurse, or physical/ occupational/ speech therapist, we would love to hear from you, but this is not required. Competitive rates ($15-20/ hr depending on experience), and looking for a start date in the next couple of weeks. Please contact arlingtonfamilysitter@gmail.com.

True to the era that inspires it, the Adidas Originals YUNG 1 Price features a classic mesh construction, bolstered by suede overlay panels and details including branded and reflective panels and a molded heel unit. This is then finished off with a classic rubber midsole, with contrast accents in the forefoot and heel. Through incorporating design elements into the Adidas Originals Continental 80 Price such as engineered mesh and a BOUNCE midsole, athletes are empowered to use running within their training to obtain their competitive edge, giving them the power to ‘RUN THE GAME’. To represent this, sports stars Landon Collins, Damian Lillard and Florencia Galarza, are included in the campaign to demonstrate the importance of running within their specific training program, making them the dominant players on the field and court. Stavseng made a similar point to Adidas Originals Falcon Price. “The digital world is becoming increasingly important,” he explained. “For us, it’s always a good gut check if the shoe looks good in photographs—changing how we look at design and how we review shoes as well.” www.netwhilesale.com/

Hello! We are looking for a part time caregiver for my 81 year old grandmother with dementia. We live in Fairfax. She is very physical strong and capable but gets confused easily. Because of her confusion she requires help using the bathroom, showering, brushing her hair, etc.. Responsibilities include assistance with the previously mentioned ADLs in addition to preparing simple meals and giving her medications. We need help usually 8 AM until 6 PM but hours and days are flexible. We are willing to pay $15-18 per hours depending on experience, certifications, and references. Our home has three small dogs and a cat, so must not have any pet allergies. A typical day would include coming to the house when we leave for work and preparing my grandmother breakfast and giving medications. She usually sleeps in until 10-11 AM. We normally get her bathed and dressed when she feels like doing so, which can be anytime from morning to evening. She spends most of the day in the living room watching tv with her dog, so you would really just be there in case she needs anything outside of providing her meals. As a recent nursing school graduate myself, this position would be great experience for a someone interested in nursing! It also provides plenty of time to get studying or school work done while hanging out with my grandmother. Please contact me at jmearly97@gmail.com if your are interested with some details about yourself or any questions about the position.

Free room for rent, to a female, in exchange for providing overnight care to an elderly female in her home. The hours are 9pm-5am, Monday-Sunday. The bathroom is shared, and it's an unfurnished, large bedroom. The elderly female will need to use the bathroom once for the night, but will need assistance. The elderly female has dementia, but has no behavior issues. She likes being around people, and is a very sweet person. Would prefer that you meet visitors outside of the home. We are being sensitive to the needs of the elderly female, where it would not be a good idea to have many people entering/exiting the home. The home is in South Arlington, and is accessible by bus or Metro. This opportunity is good for someone who is in the medical field, and is willing to gain experience working with the elderly. You would be responsible for your own groceries and personal needs. Please email me at akhan882000@yahoo.com if interested.
