Homemaker Aide

About Us

Fairfield County Council on Aging (FCCOA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for Fairfield County's senior population. We're committed to empowering seniors to live independently and with dignity through programs that support their physical, emotional, and social well-being — and our team is made up of compassionate, dedicated people who treat every client with respect and care.

About the Role

FCCOA's Homemaker Aides help seniors stay safely and independently in their own homes by providing light housekeeping and homemaking support. This is not a maid service and does not include personal care — it's focused, meaningful work that makes a real difference in a senior's day-to-day life.

What You'll Do

• Provide basic maintenance-type cleaning in a client's primary bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, and most-used sitting area
• Change bed linens and make beds
• Vacuum, sweep, and mop floors
• Wash dishes by hand or load/unload the dishwasher
• Do light laundry — load/unload the washer and dryer, and fold or hang clothing
• Empty trash and place it in an outdoor receptacle or curb-side bin
• Sweep the client's most-used entrance way
• Follow each client's individualized service plan, as outlined by FCCOA's Program Services Manager
• Observe and promptly report any changes in a client's condition or home environment
• Keep accurate, timely records and documentation for each visit

What This Role Does Not Include

Homemaker Aides do not provide personal care or hands-on assistance (such as bathing, dressing, medication support, or lifting). This is strictly a homemaking and light housekeeping position.

What We're Looking For

• Basic knowledge of housekeeping techniques and safe use of cleaning products
• Dependable and punctual, with the ability to maintain a consistent weekly schedule
• Comfortable working independently in clients' homes
• Reliable transportation to travel between client homes across Fairfield County
• Able to pass a background check
• A caring, respectful, and professional manner when working with senior clients
• Willingness to attend required trainings (e.g. CPR/First Aid and In-House) and meetings
• Neat, clean, and professional personal presentation

Schedule & Reporting

• Part-time, hourly position: minimum of 12 hours, up to 29 hours per week
• Reports to FCCOA's Program Services Manager
