Could you spend Wednesday and Friday afternoons with Lemma? (Bahir Dar)
Unpaid or low-cost help with Lemma for a few hours each week would keep our family afloat.

I'm Yared, and I look after my father at home in Bahir Dar. Lemma has early memory loss and should not be alone for long stretches. I work until six, and the gap on Wednesday and Friday 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.
Lemma 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 Lemma 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.
