Use a broom stick. Pump the pedal and then wedge the broom with the pole against the pedal and the straw end against your seat. Then go crack the bleed fitting and retighten. Then go back remove the broom and do it again. I've bled brakes this way for over 30 years; I've never had a family member that could pay attention and follow instructions when I would say "OK pump, hold, now you can release."
