personal aide
Individual support staff
A personal aide is someone employed to assist an individual with daily tasks, scheduling, and various duties.
The term covers a range of roles—from helping elderly or disabled people with physical needs to managing a busy executive's calendar and correspondence.
In political contexts, a personal aide handles a politician's private affairs rather than policy work: The senator's personal aide accompanied him everywhere.
