Companion for Tumusiime while I'm at work, Kasarani
I look after my father and work nights. I'm looking for someone patient to sit with Tumusiime on Monday and Wednesday afternoons.

I'm Okello, and I look after my father at home in Kasarani. Tumusiime has failing eyesight and should not be alone for long stretches. I work nights, 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 2pm 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.
Tumusiime 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 Tumusiime present, and I'm happy to give a reference from the parish. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more.
Thank you. A few hours from you would make a real difference to our week.

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