Your mom hasn’t left the house on Westcott Road since her fall last spring, and your sister noticed at Christmas that she’s lost weight. The doctor at Day Kimball says she’s medically stable, but she won’t hear about assisted living, and you can’t be there every day. Live-In Care means someone is actually there, around the clock, so your parent stays in their own home and you stop holding your breath.

Live-In Care is one caregiver in your parent’s home, full-time, for the hours you need. That person is there to help with bathing, dressing, meals, medications, mobility, and the hundred small moments that add up to safety and dignity. They’re not a nurse, but they’re trained to notice what matters and report back to you.
On a typical day, you’ll see your parent eating regular meals, taking medications on time, getting help with personal care, and having another adult in the house who knows their routine. The caregiver tidies, helps with light housework, manages the household rhythm, and keeps an eye on things. Your parent isn’t alone, and you’re not checking your phone every two hours wondering if something’s wrong.
Windham County families often come to us right after a Day Kimball discharge, when the hospital stay is over but your parent needs real support at home. We were founded by a nurse who knew that full-time presence makes the difference between a parent who thrives at home and one who doesn’t. That background means we understand what to watch for and how to keep your parent safe without them feeling watched.
Our founder was a nurse. We started this because we saw families struggle with part-time help that didn’t add up to real safety. Live-In Care is different, it’s a steady presence, and we know how to match the right person to your parent’s specific needs so they feel comfortable in their own home.
We brief every caregiver on your parent’s habits, preferences, health concerns, and the things that matter to them. We don’t just send a body, we send someone who understands your family’s situation. After matching, we stay involved and adjust if something isn’t working.
Live-In Care situations are never static. Your parent’s health shifts, your schedule changes, family needs evolve. You reach us directly, and we respond quickly, whether that’s adjusting hours, swapping caregivers, or talking through what’s next.
We work with Day Kimball discharge planners regularly and we know Danielson’s neighborhoods and the families here. That local connection means faster response, better understanding of your community, and caregivers who know the area.

Why families choose us
Every aide is trained and supervised through an RN’s lens — not just placed and forgotten.
Personality fit matters more than skill on paper. We match for temperament, pace, and patience.
No franchise rotation. You work with the people who run this agency — direct, accessible, accountable.
Most families are matched with a caregiver within 24 to 48 hours. When something shifts at home, we move quickly.
We build a daily structure around your parent’s rhythm — meals, walks, evenings — and protect it.
You hear from us, not just the aide. Updates on appetite, sleep, mood, mobility — the things that matter.
Every caregiver clears a multi-step screening — background check, reference checks, and an in-person interview with our RN founder — before they're ever placed in a home.
Why families trust us
Private Duty Aides is nurse-founded. Every caregiver clears a multi-step screening — a background check, reference checks, and an in-person interview with our RN founder — before they are ever placed in a home. You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A live-in caregiver is present for bathing, dressing, grooming, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping, and companionship. They help your parent move safely, manage their routine, and stay engaged. They're also watching, so if something changes, you know about it. The specific hours and focus are set up based on what your parent actually needs.
We often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge if we have the right caregiver match available. We work directly with Day Kimball's discharge team, so we get the medical information we need upfront. If you're planning ahead, we can sometimes have someone ready on discharge day. Urgent situations are our priority.
Live-In Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover it because it's custodial care, not skilled nursing. We're honest about cost upfront, and we help families understand what they're paying for: a full-time presence that keeps your parent at home safely. Some families use long-term care insurance, but you'll want to check your specific plan.
A home health aide typically comes for a few hours a day, a few days a week, and is part of a care plan ordered by a doctor. Live-In Care is full-time, around the clock, and focused on keeping your parent home and independent for as long as possible. The difference is presence, continuity, and your parent not being alone. One isn't better than the other, it depends on what your parent needs.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's personality, health, habits, and what matters most to them. We also listen to what you need as the family. Then we match thoughtfully, not just by availability. If the match isn't right after the first week or two, we make a change. That's part of our job.
We have backup caregivers we've trained, and we notify you in advance whenever possible so there are no surprises. Your parent shouldn't wake up to a stranger, so we manage these transitions carefully. If we ever can't cover, we tell you immediately so you can make other arrangements. This doesn't happen often, but when it does, we handle it honestly.
