NPA assistant wanted in Selfoss
Hi, I’m Jenny – I’m Looking for a personal assistant.
I’m 50 years old and live a quiet life with my horse Mýrra and cat Nalle in 800, Selfoss. I’m looking for someone kind, responsible, and with a good sense of humor to help me manage daily life.
I had a stroke five years ago which left me with aphasia (so I sometimes need help finding words), visual field loss, and neuropathic pain in half my body. I also live with chronic pain, fibromyalgia, a herniated disc, autism, and ADHD – so life takes a bit of extra planning and patience. I’m introverted and value calm environments, animals, and nature.
Here’s what I could use your help with:
-Getting to appointments (like dentist, physio, chiropractor, and vet)
-Grocery shopping and light cleaning now and then
-Visiting the stable and helping me with my horse (bonus if you can do basic riding)
-Support with communication and planning
-Encouraging social contact with friends and connection with others in similar situations
-Just being someone I can trust and rely on in daily life
You don’t need to have much experience – the right attitude means more than a long CV. That said, if you’ve done something similar before, that’s great! A work permit is a plus.
Working hours:
Summer: ~17:00–23:00, 4 days/week, with 1 day reserved for appointments
Winter: More flexible, starting around 12:00 midday
If this sounds like something for you – and if you like animals, mindfulness, and working in a calm and meaningful way – I’d love to hear from you.
