What is the easiest way to set up remote control of elderly parent's Mac?

My 93 year old mother has an M2 MacBook Air.


She's reaching the point where she needs help with controlling it, which I would like to be able do remotely.


She has no Apple ID - with that in mind, what is the easiest way to set up remote control of her MacBook, without buying any special software?


Or, would an Apple ID work better / easier?


Thanks.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.4
