Respite care wanted: a few hours a week with Leighton in Half-Way Tree
I look after my father and work until six. I am looking for someone patient to sit with Leighton on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.

I'm Neville, and I look after my father at home in Half-Way Tree. Leighton has failing eyesight and should not be alone for long stretches. I work until six, 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 5pm. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care.
Leighton loves football 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 Leighton present, and I'm happy to give a reference from our doctor's office. 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.

I have looked after my own mother and I know how tiring it is. I could do Saturday afternoons if that suits. Flexible on timing.
