kinda new job ?
#1
My Dentist of over 30 years has called me and asked me to go to his parents home 3 times a week. He says light housework, grocery shopping, maybe some ironing and cook them a meal. Only 3 days a week. He says he will feel better cause he knows me. But I've never done this before, I hope I don't let anyone down. I hope I'm not sorry I accepted, but it's nice to be needed. What do you think, what can I cook for them? But in a nice kitchen, hmmm. who knows?? 8-)

You will probably do great! Best to ask them what kind of stuff they like to eat, & what they definitely don't like, then you can vary it from there... Also, if they are on any kind of special diet. I bet they will be glad to have you & look forward to your visits. Good luck & let us know how it goes!...

Thanks! That is exactly why I posted, because I needed support. I'm used to visiting at someones home, not up doing things for them...I just need a list. I will be meeting them tomorrow at 10am with the Dentist

Might want some clarification of what is expected of you -
What is their definition of "light housework"?
Hours?
Grocery shopping - pick them up and take them? or go to the store by yourself?
And what you expect from them -
Compensation?
Will you be treated as an employee and the money earned as taxable income?
Mileage?
I'm sure that this will evolve as you get to know their needs better.
