Hi,
I was wondering is someone can shed some light on where I’m going wrong with the pricing side of my new business quest.
I have looked on here on ways to “Up your income” I have seem to find a small gap in the market area my area for private care assisting for the elderly & disabled.
I am offering my spare time during the day to do duties like:-
Shopping runs
Prescription collection & drop in’s
All home duties< Washing, Ironing, Hovering - Ect
Personal care
I am offering packages for people needing:-
Minimal care (Just a helping hand)
Part-time care (Maybe 2 - 3 visits weekly)
Full time care (For people needing assistance with everything listed above.)
What would be fair price’s to charge?
I have experience in this field, But I have only ever worked with family, friends & volunteering.
I am also - CRB checked & cleared* & First-aid trained.
(Although - My first aid is aimed at children - We also learned the aid needed for adults!)
Any assistance is gratefully needed & welcomed
