Respite care wanted: a few hours a week with Sven in Adama

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

Adama
I'm Hanna, and I look after my father at home in Adama. Sven has a weak heart and should not be alone for long stretches. I work until six, and the gap on weekday 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. Sven 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 Sven 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.
