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

I'm Isa, and I look after my husband at home in Amsterdam. Ruben has failing eyesight and should not be alone for long stretches. I work until six, and the gap on Monday and Wednesday 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 5.30. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care.
Ruben loves crosswords 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 Ruben present, and I'm happy to give a reference from my employer. 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.
