Here is a message from the client:
I live with two teenage children and my husband and I want my support team to be part of the family. Family and home life are really important to me. I am looking forward to getting home and getting a dog, so dog lovers are essential. I enjoy banter and want to be around people that don't take life too seriously. We are a friendly welcoming family that just want to be together at home and I need support to do this.
Sometimes, as with all people, I need some alone time or just time with my family, so the right candidates have to know when to be active and when to blend into the background.
