Sittercity Offers Senior Care for Care Givers Needing a Break
July 24th, 2009 by admin
Being the primary care giver for an elderly parent is a difficult situation at best. Add working part-time, raising a family, and running a household to the mix and you have a guaranteed recipe for stress. It has become apparent that my husband feels neglected because so much of my time is taken up caring for my mother, the children, or working. I decided that I can’t let my marriage suffer, so we are going away for a few days. My sister-in-law volunteered to let the kids stay with her, but I need someone to care for my mom. I wasn’t sure who to contact for help, so I called the local senior center for advice. The manager suggested I look up sittercity on the Internet and read the listing of qualified people who provide senior care. I am so glad I listened to her advice. A wonderful lady who lives in our town will be looking after Mom while we are gone. Anyone in need of a respite from caring for an elderly person should visit sittercity.
