I would like someone to help with very basic home maintenance (laundry, dishes, very light organization and maybe meal prep). I'm 33 with severe ADHD, hearing impaired (I have 20% of my hearing, you do not need to know sign), and on the spectrum. I'm not a child, but I've been struggling for a very long time and "nanny" seems to fit with the things that I need help with. I'm a reasonably intelligent person and competent in my career, however taking care of only the most basic aspects of my home feels like trying to climb a mountain.

I'm a professional artist and I also love playing the harp, being physically active, and spending time with my dog. I hope to be a positive moment in your week! Schedule is flexible!
