Companion for Mónica while I'm at work, Laredo

I look after my mother and work nights. I'm looking for someone patient to sit with Mónica on weekday afternoons.

I'm Iván, and I look after my mother at home in Laredo. Mónica has failing eyesight and should not be alone for long stretches. I work nights, and the gap on weekday afternoons is the hardest part of my week. What I need is someone calm and reliable to be in the house from about 1pm 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. Mónica loves her grandchildren 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 Mónica 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.
