Full-Time, Part-Time • Live-Out
My name is Gaelle, originally from a country in East Africa called Burundi. I left my country at the age of 11 with my family and we landed in Holland (The Netherlands) as refugees. I lived there until I came to Canada, Ottawa in 2002. I'm married to a wonderful husband and together we have 4 beautiful kids. 2 girls who are the oldest followed by 2 amazing boys. I've always lived in Ottawa since I migrated to Canada. My faith is everything for me. I believe in Jesus Christ, I believe He is the son of God, born of the virgin Mary, was crucified and rose again on the third day and is now seated at the right hand side of God The Father. My faith is what sustains me. Me and my family attend church regularly and we serve in different ministries in our local church. I serve as a deaconess on the church board, I serve in the music ministry as a choir member and a praise and worship leader, I serve in the children's ministry as a Sunday school teacher, I serve as the Special Event Coordinator in my church and I also hold weekly prayer sessions in my home. So in other words, when I'm not working, the only other place you will find me is in church. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family, I enjoy taking long walks, I enjoy watching a good movie (Comedy, Action or Romantic) and I love shopping, it's therapeutic for me, but I try to be very frugal. I love people in general, it doesn't matter where you're from, it doesn't matter what you look like, it doesn't matter whether you share the same beliefs as myself, it doesn't matter your status or education or finances, I will love and care for you and treat you with the utmost respect. My core beliefs and values are from the bible and I try my best to live by them. These beliefs and values that I have help me with decision-making and they essentially provide the building blocks for my character, for who I am and how I live my life. One of those values I hold dear to my heart is kindness and compassion. Kindness is about treating others the way you want to be treated. kindness looks for ways to make life better for others. It takes delight in lifting others up and reminding them they’re not alone, invisible, or insignificant. I make it my mission to show kindness and compassion to others, because when I do that, I myself benefit as much as the other person does. Bottom line is, I treat everyone as I want to be treated, with thoughtfulness, patience, and respect. Another one of my strong values is integrity. Integrity is about acting and speaking in accordance with your beliefs. What I believe is made clear by what I say and do. Another one of my beliefs and values is gratitude and appreciation. I prioritize both feeling gratitude and expressing it daily, in my thoughts, in the words I speak or write, and in my attitude and actions. I have many years of experience working as a Personal Support Worker and I've worked in Home settings, group home settings, hospital, Long-term care, Retirement home care settings, and shelters. I've seen first hand how the elderly and vulnerable are sometimes neglected because of maybe a staffing shortage and it has always left me sad and frustrated at not being able or allowed to do more for the individuals that we care for. This is what has motivated me to go private and hopefully I can be able to assist people who need help and provide them with the best possible care and support on their own terms and not on the terms of the facilities. I'm looking for the opportunity to provide care that is person centered, care that will treat patients as individuals whose knowledge, values, preferences, family and social circumstances are acknowledged and important when deciding how to manage their medical care. I hope I get the opportunity to make a difference in your life and in the lives of your loved ones by caring for them.

My name is Jaiden. I’m 25 years old, and grew up in Uxbridge, Ontario. I attended school at Georgian College in Barrie, Ontario (2018-2021) studying Business. I have since been working a multitude of different jobs including residential cleaning, childcare, teacher’s aide, social media specialist, delivery driving, and running my own small business (laser engraving). After years of working, I have decided that I wish to return to school to finish my Business degree at Algonquin College. My program start date is January 2025. I will be a full-time student with classes throughout the week. My program will run from January 2025-August 2027. I am unsure of my plans after this point in time. I am looking for a live-in position as a caregiver of some sort. I am open to a multitude of different opportunities so I welcome you to reach out! I am comfortable with meal prep, running errands, cleaning & tidying, shopping, childcare, elderly care, personal support, companionship, pet care, etc.. I would be more than happy being a “personal assistant” of sorts for your family, picking up the slack wherever it’s needed. I have 8+ years working as a nanny for a multitude of different families, caring for children ages 3-12 years. I have worked in a Retirement Home preparing and serving meals to the elderly. I have worked in a couple of different restaurants preparing and serving food to guests. I have worked as a residential cleaner, cleaning for clients in private homes. My most recent job was in Quebec as a teacher’s aide. I taught English to students in grades 1-6. A little bit about me: I am a very friendly, upbeat, mature and respectful individual. I have a passion for cooking healthy, balanced meals, as well as baking. I prioritize intuitive eating and enjoy fueling my body with fresh, healthy foods that make my body and mind thrive. I am an active individual and enjoy working out on a regular basis (runs, walks, weight-lifting, pilates, yoga, etc.). I enjoy doing home workouts as well as going to the gym (whatever fits into the schedule!). I am very creative and enjoy making personalized creations with my small laser-engraving business. I love nature and being outdoors for hikes, skiing, sitting in the sun, etc.. I also love reading. Although I am outgoing and very comfortable interacting with others, I am definitely an introvert! I love my time alone to recharge my social battery and gain energy. Although I am looking for a live-in position— I guarantee it would not feel like I am invading your space or personal family time. I have lived on my own for many years and am used to having my own little apartment (or in this case, I’m assuming a bedroom) to unwind and do my own thing. I am also open to a live-out position, if it makes sense for both parties. Please feel free to reach out if you think we might be a good fit! I look forward to hearing from you. My name is Jaiden, and I’m 25 years old. Over the past few years, I’ve gained experience in a variety of roles including residential cleaning, childcare, teaching assistance, social media management, working in a retirement home, serving in restaurants, delivery driving, and running my own small business specializing in laser engraving. After years of working, I’ve decided to return to school to finish my Business degree at Algonquin College, starting in January 2025. I’m open to various caregiving roles and can assist with meal preparation, running errands, cleaning, shopping, childcare, elderly care, personal support, companionship, and pet care. My goal is to be a supportive and flexible “personal assistant” for you or your family, helping out wherever needed on a part-time basis. A bit about me: I’m a friendly, upbeat, and respectful individual with a passion for healthy cooking and baking. I like working out, reading, and spending time in nature. If you think I might be a good fit for you or your family, please feel free to reach out! **Rates to be discussed based on the details of the live-in/live-out arrangement, such as the number of hours needed, etc.
