A kind person to sit with my sister on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons in Soweto

I look after my sister and work until six. I'm looking for someone patient to sit with Dineo on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.

I'm Tracey, and I look after my sister at home in Soweto. Dineo has Parkinson's and should not be alone for long stretches. I work until six, and the gap on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons is the hardest part of my week. What I need is someone calm and reliable to be in the house from about 2pm until 5pm. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care. Dineo loves old photographs and will talk your ear off about it. I'm home before dark and will always leave the phone numbers of the doctor and a neighbor. I'd like to meet you first with Dineo present, and I'm happy to give a reference from the parish. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more. If this is something you could do, please write to me through the offer button.

    I live nearby and could sit with them on Monday. No charge. Flexible on timing.

    I have looked after my own mother and I know how tiring it is. I could do Thursday afternoons if that suits. Just let me know.
