Respite for a tired caregiver in Cape Town
I care for my wife through the night and haven't had a full night's sleep in months. Could someone help once a week?

I'm Yusuf. For 1 years I've cared for my wife, who needs help at night several times. I haven't slept through in a long time and I'm starting to make mistakes.
I'm hoping for someone who could stay one night a week, from about 9pm to 7am, in our spare room. You would only need to help Sibel to the toilet and get back to bed. Sibel sleeps well once settled, and I'll leave clear notes.
I can't pay much, but I can give a small thank-you and good breakfast. If you've done night care before or work in health care, you'd be perfect.
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 Friday afternoons if that suits. Flexible on timing.

I do not have formal training but I am patient and I have lots of free time on Tuesday. Happy to give references. Happy to chat first.

I am retired and have plenty of time. I could come for a few hours a week. Flexible on timing.
