Respite care wanted: a few hours a week with Manuel in La Plata

I look after my husband and work early shifts. I'm looking for someone patient to sit with Manuel on Monday and Wednesday afternoons.

I'm Lourdes, and I look after my husband at home in La Plata. Manuel has failing eyesight and should not be alone for long stretches. I work early shifts, 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 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. Manuel 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 Manuel 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.
