Errand jobs in United Kingdom

I am a professional artist and single mother. My business is growing rapidly and I am now looking for a live-in assistant in my gorgeous London home In Fulham. You would have your own double room and the flat is very close to shops and transport links. I need someone who can drive (ideally with their own car) to help me with day to day tasks such as helping me get my chatty and very affectionate 6 year old autistic son Freddie ready for school, then spend the day helping me manage my social media platforms, organise logistics for art transportation and exhibitions and run errands such as going to the post office, grabbing supplies from the supermarket, cooking the occasional meal and replying on my behalf to customers who want to commission paintings or order prints. I need someone who is good on social media and able to help grow my brand. I want someone enthusiastic, friendly, warm, punctual, trustworthy and kind who is good with clients, confident and well presented. I often need help on my stand at exhibitions and would need someone to help me do things like catalogue and insure my work, move paintings from one venue to another, help promote my events, reach print sales targets and also be happy to do other tasks like collect my son from school or take him to the playground. No day with me would ever be the same, I have a studio in Earlsfield where I paint my large oil on canvas pantings and also work from home in Fulham when doing smaller ink on paper paintings and admin. I really need help with administration and planning and want someone who would be able to do some market research to help me grow my business. You would come to interesting events with me and be dealing with my clients, shipper, printer and framers. I want someone with a happy positive mindset who enjoys getting out of bed in the morning and facing new challenges! I love my job and my life and I want to share that excitement and passion with somone who has a similar mindset.
