home support worker

Norma Acala Duy · Victoria, BC · $24.65 hourly

Posted 2026-07-27 · Reviewed on 2026-07-29 · What do these ratings mean?

Verdict

The employer is a named private individual with no company, website or business registration to verify, which is normal for this in-home caregiver occupation but leaves nothing to corroborate. Two things push this above the other household posting: the contact address luciaacala1940@gmail.com is a free consumer mailbox that does not match the stated employer name Norma Acala Duy, and the posting advertises optional live-in accommodation, an arrangement that increases applicant exposure when the employer cannot be verified. Mitigating factors are that a criminal record check and references are required, the $24.65 wage matches the prevailing rate for the occupation, and no fee, banking detail or mail-in resume is requested.
