So, you're looking for a property caretaker?

​I'm April Bailey, professional caretaker for hire.

I'm currently a live-in caretaker in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area and looking for a new opportunity. 
Let Me Introduce Myself
Prior to becoming a caretaker, I was a 20+ year homeowner who handled all of the normal responsibilities, and several emergency situations that occurred. 
I grew up in Fairfield County, Connecticut and last resided in Wilton before moving to Pittsburgh. I was educated at Quinnipiac University (then College) and later at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and the University of Pittsburgh. I spent most of my professional years in some form of marketing and as time went on, I was becoming dissatisfied in that field. I eventually left my corporate position to explore something new which was freelance writing for companies whihc I still do on a part-time basis.

At close to the same time that I started freelancing, an interesting opportunity came my way via a friend and colleague. She told me about a woman whose live-in caretaker had just passed a couple of months earlier. On top of the management of her homes, she had three dogs and several cats that needed to be cared for while she was away. I decided it might be good for me to try something entirely different and that I was more than comfortable with a downsize of my life, so I met with her and got the position. 

​I've been working at my current position for the past year and a half managing two adjacent estates owned by a retiree who spends most of her time out of the country. My duties involve the following:

Maintaining a lived-in presence
Virtual Assistant
Vendor Management
Landscaping
Plumbing
Electrical
Painting
Small repairs
Heavy to light cleaning
Cooking 
Laundry
Seasonal Prep
Pet Care

I will be able to provide references if need be. These references will tell you that I'm a very hard working and conscientious person, able to work on my own, resourceful, and stable in my life. I have a solid, old-fashioned (I like to say Yankee) work ethic and, as a caretaker, my responsibilities to the safety and well-being of the property I'm in charge of  takes priority over anything else.

I'm looking for a new opportunity back home in New England as I have family and friends that I want to move closer to. I was very excited to see your listing because it is in Connecticut and also because it seemed to be an extremely close match to the responsibilities that I now have. I'd love to have the opportunity to speak with you to see if we'd be a good match for each other.

I can be reached by phone at 412-265-7887 from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. or by email at april.bailey@outlook.com.
