About Private Duty Aides

Built by a nurse.
Built for families.

Hospital discharge teams and care coordinators work extraordinarily hard under intense time pressure — often arranging services within hours. The challenge isn’t effort or intent. It’s that the speed of modern discharge leaves little room for the kind of deep caregiver vetting that families truly need.

Private Duty Aides was founded to fill that gap: a boutique, nurse-founded agency that does the slow, careful work of vetting — so families have someone they can genuinely trust when they need it most.

We offer companion care, personal care and daily assistance, dementia and Alzheimer’s care, and respite or 24/7 rotating care. All services are non-medical.
