What are the responsibilities and job description for the Caregiver – For the In-Between Years | Seniors Helping Seniors position at Seniors Helping Seniors?
“You see us as you want to see us…”
A jock. A brain. A basket case. A princess. A criminal.
Sound familiar?
They weren’t just stereotypes. They were five teenagers trying to figure out who they were — in a world that slapped labels on them before they even had a chance.
Now imagine being on the other end of life. Retired, slower-moving, maybe forgetful. Labeled again. Invisible again.
Being a teenager and being a senior have more in common than we think. You're stuck between who you were and who you're becoming. You're trying to be understood — and maybe just listened to.
That’s where you come in. As a caregiver, you’re not just helping with meals and meds — You’re showing up for someone’s second coming-of-age.
You’re sitting with someone who once lit up boardrooms, raised families, or taught generations — and now needs help brushing their hair. You’re holding space in the silence, in the grief, in the fierce fight for dignity.
It’s messy. It’s beautiful. It’s punk rock in the softest way possible.
The Work:
Transportation – to doctor appointments, grocery stores, or just out into the world that keeps spinning Meal prep – food that feels safe, familiar, and made with care Light housekeeping – not about perfection, just comfort Personal care – bathing, dressing, hygiene, done with respect and kindness Medication reminders – gentle, consistent, essential Cognitive support – calm presence when memory falters or fear creeps in
You’re not fixing people. You’re not saving anyone. You’re showing up. Every day. Like a total rebel.
Who You Are:
- You get that losing independence is just as jarring as gaining it
- You believe eye contact is medicine
- You’re not afraid of silence
- You’re emotionally mature, respectful, and dependable
- You’ve got a car, a license, and the kind of energy that makes people exhale
- You don’t need years of experience — just the ability to see someone as a whole person
What You Get:
$18–$21/hour $1,000 bonus after 6 months Medical, dental, and vision insurance 401(k) paid time off Training & ongoing support — because this job teaches you, too Flexible schedules — we know life doesn’t fit in a neat box
The Heart of It:
Teenagers are becoming who they’re going to be. Seniors are holding on to who they are. Both deserve care, respect, and room to just be.
If you get that, then you already understand — This isn’t a “job.” It’s a presence. A quiet act of defiance against invisibility.
One Last Thing:
When you apply, tell us what movie this job description is based on. (You know the one. Saturday detention. One essay. Five kids, and by the end, not a single one of them fits in a box.)
Apply now. Because getting older shouldn't mean disappearing.
