Make a Personal Preferences Page

Little details make support feel personal. Maybe you prefer an early errand, unscented cleaning supplies, or a phone call rather than a text. A preferences page can keep you from explaining the same things repeatedly.

Include your preferred name, useful contact method, usual visiting hours, and household instructions. Add what you enjoy doing yourself. Keep sensitive details, passwords, and financial information somewhere separate. Review the page when your routines change, and decide who may receive a copy. A simple page can help others follow your lead.

Try this: Write five things you would want a new helper to know about your routine.
