looking for Senior day trip companion
Description
Looking for a peppy outgoing young female senior that drives and has full mobility to be a paid companion for my 77 year old mother!
Mainly for shopping trips to thrift stores in and around Guelph, Fergus, Elmira, as well as home visits to stop by and visit, chat etc.
She can walk around with a shopping cart on her own, however she needs help to guide her around the store to ensure she is actually looking at stuff, otherwise she tends to wander off. This is important, because she isn't intentionally skipping aisles, she just gets confused. She really needs the stimulation of looking around and enjoying it. So she needs to be cued.
She likes to end the day with icecream or some French fries.
She needs help in and out of the car and into the store. I usually just hook arms to assist her walking.
She needs help paying for her items
She doesn't usually need the washroom while she's out. She only needs minor assistance.
At home, she just needs a genuine friend to visit, someone who can speak loud and try and keep a conversation going, someone to keep her up and talking.
Ideally I would like her outings to be one day per week. For 4 hours. 12:00pm to 4:00pm, possibly twice,
The home visits could be shorter, 1.5-2 hours in the evening from 6-8pm
Looking for a female senior who also enjoys thrift shopping, retired with a valid driver's license and a vulnerable sector check.

Please respond with why you think you would be a good fit!
