Do you enjoy helping others live comfortably, safely, and independently in their own homes?
Would you thrive in a role where your kindness, conversation, light housekeeping, and meal preparation truly enhance someone’s quality of life? If so, we’d love to meet you.

The Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) is seeking a compassionate Homemaker to support clients by creating a clean, safe, and welcoming home environment. In this role, your personal connection with clients is just as important as the household tasks you complete. The schedule is Monday–Friday 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM with no evenings, weekends, or major holiday shifts!

As a Homemaker, you will support clients by:

• Building warm, supportive relationships during every visit
• Helping maintain a clean and safe home through light housekeeping such as dusting, vacuuming, sweeping/mopping, dishes, laundry, and bathroom upkeep
• Preparing simple, nutritious meals and assisting with basic kitchen tasks
• Running small errands, including grocery shopping, as needed
• Bringing positivity, reliability, and respect into each client interaction

You don’t need to be a gourmet chef—just someone who enjoys preparing meals, organizing spaces, and helping others live comfortably in their homes.

• A great listener and communicator who can connect with people from all walks of life
• Honest, kind, and dependable, with a naturally friendly demeanor
• Energetic and adaptable, able to adjust to different home environments and daily needs
• Proud of your work, consistently demonstrating reliability, integrity, and attention to detail
• Passionate about helping clients remain independent in the comfort of their personal homes
