Need for Personal Carers - Paphos

[Kev&Linda]

Hi all,

We are new to this forum, hoping to move out to Cyprus within the next 8 weeks, any usefull tips or advice anybody has we would be greatful to hear from you ?we would like to build up contacts in Limassol and Paphos as that's areas we have a preference for,

Is there a demand for private Personal Carers for the elderly?
Is there plenty of work within the building trade i.e Painting and decorating,fencing and general Labouring?
We would also consider perhaps maintaining a small complex, Maintenance, gardening, laundry and cleaning.


We are a couple in our fourtie's with years of experience in the above trades

Hi Kev and Linda,

I am sure you will have no trouble finding work in the areas you talk about.
We have lived in Cyprus for the past 4 years and have never regretted a minute of it.
There are a lot of pitfalls which new arrivals in Cyprus fall foul of but if I can help you in any way with advice about how things work dont be afraid to contact me.

As yummymummy suggested flyers wouldbe a good way to get yourselves
known and I can recommend a very good graphic designer/printer who will do them for you at a very reasonable price.

Hi Veronica,

Thank you for taking time to reply, we hope to be on the Island by the end of may, we will probably be renting furnished accommodation our preference being for Paphos (no surprise there then!). Which area do you live in?

[Veronica Kneeshaw]

Hi Kev and Linda
We live just outside Paphos and can throughly recommend the area.

I live in limassol and have found that as you get to know people, particularly the locals, they will always know someone who knows someone!!! so word of mouth is so important here to build up working relationships. I work at one of the most well known schools here and i would gladly put notices up to reach an audience of more than 500 expats

good luck
