Someone to sit with mum on Tuesdays in Portland

Portland, Maine · NortheastPosted 26 Jun 2026 by Brandon O.

What's needed

I care for my mum full time and can't get out much. Any help at all, even part of it, would make a real difference. I'd guess an hour or two would cover it, but I'm not in a rush. Happy to say a proper thank you, and to return the favour when I'm back on my feet. I'm based in Portland, Maine.

How helping works

  1. 1. Send a message. Say what you could do and when you're free — there's no obligation on either side.
  2. 2. Agree the details. Brandon O. picks who to reply to and you sort out timing between you.
  3. 3. Lend a hand. Once it's sorted, the listing is closed so nobody else offers unnecessarily.

Helping is always free and voluntary. If anything feels wrong, report the listing and our moderators will look into it.
