· Light cooking and cleaning (dishes, cleaning up after my son, his laundry and meals)
· Occasionally I might ask for help on random things around the house
· When I am away, manage the house and be my sons sole caretaker (expected 2-4 times per year, 2-5 days at a time. You will receive additional compensation for hours worked past the initial 25 when I travel or have other things going on requiring more help.)
