I will be moving to the Cleveland,Ohio area with in a few weeks and will be in great need of a job.
I would really like to babysit the elderly...
Clean their home, cook for them, do their shopping, just be company for them.
Does anyone have any idea where I can find this kind of job??
I've searched a few different sites but only in vain.
I'll do whatever is required for something like this, but I truly would love to find something in this line of work...
Actually, I'll be moving to Garfield Heights, Ohio which is a suburb of Cleveland...
Thanks again for all your help :)

I found this ad on cleveland.craigslist...I think it's exactly what you want

Good luck!
If this doesn't work, I would start here, which is your local hospital website. It . I would call the hospital and ask for their social worker and explain your idea to her. You may have to have a background check to make sure you're not an axe murderer or something.

Consider being a home carer. I was one for about 15 months and loved it. Hard work though. At times the jobs can be a bit icky, empyting commodes etc.

First of all it is not called babysitting the elderly it is called elderly caregiver or elderly care provider.Look in the phone book under home health services(in-home elderly caregiver)

You have to apply to a companions and homemakers place or a home care agency...you should ask if they have openings as a companion

its called personal care aid. there are temp agencies that could set you up with a few jobs, since most are part time or temp.
