Respite care wanted: a few hours a week with Cecilia in Warsaw

Unpaid or low-cost help with Cecilia for a few hours each week would keep our family afloat.

Warsaw
I'm Filip, and I look after my mother at home in Warsaw. Cecilia has early memory loss 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 2pm 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. Cecilia 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 Cecilia present, and I'm happy to give a reference from my employer. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more. I'll be so grateful for any help at all.
