Care & respiteElderly care
Companion for Logan while I'm at work, Pietermaritzburg
Logan needs company and a little help with meals; I need a few hours to work without worrying.

I'm Megan, and I look after my father at home in Pietermaritzburg. Logan has Parkinson's and should not be alone for long stretches. I work early shifts, 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 12.30 until 6pm. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care.
Logan loves his allotment 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 Logan present, and I'm happy to give a reference from the parish. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more.
I'll be so grateful for any help at all.
