Description
My mother who celebrated her 90th birthday recently lives with us following the death of my father. She has walking difficulties and relies on a wheelchair when out and about but inside she uses just her stick. She is a lovely, friendly and chatty lady who enjoys socialising, eating out and the company of people. Equally she enjoys quiet time watching TV or snoozing in her chair.
I am her daughter and work part-time as a teacher and my husband cares for her when I am at work and I take over when I get home.
What we would like is a special person who could be there for the rare occasions when we are both out but always contactable and would enjoy the company of a lady with many memories. That person could also help with some light housework, preparing a lunch for mum or just keeping her company.
Hours would be variable but equally flexable .
As the hours required are minimal we would appreciate some general help in the house with cleaning etc but not too much. You would have plenty of time off to explore the area, swim in the community pool or follow whatever pursuits that interest you.
Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
Compagnie pour pers. âgée
Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
They would benefit from living in a small Spanish community, to learn the language and culture and also if they wanted to learn or refine their English too. I am a qualified English teacher so could help with any studies.
The person we are looking for must like dogs as we have two small dogs but both are non shedding so allergies are not an issue. We live in a quiet Spanish village but close to Benidorm for those who like entertainment and all the facilities the town offers. Our village is between the mountains and the sea with spectacular views and lovely weather. Alicante is our closest airport.
Aide
We are looking ideally for a single kind lady who enjoys chatting and can offer some alternative company for my lovely mum. She loves talking about things in the past and listening to other people's experiences. She is also just content to watch a little TV, read and dose off!
So you woukd have lots of free time to follow your own interests.
Physical and personal care is managed by myself and my husband.
But It would be great if you like to cook, to provide a light lunch occasionally and to do some light cleaning, ironing etc.
