Your mom mentioned at Thanksgiving dinner that she’d fallen in the kitchen last week, but never called you. She was sitting in the same spot when you drove past her house on Route 6, the curtains still drawn at 2 p.m. You realized then that part-time help wasn’t going to work, and she’d made it clear she wasn’t moving to assisted living. Live-In Care means someone is there, every day and night, so you can stop worrying about what you’re not seeing.

Live-In Care means a caregiver lives in your parent’s home and is present during waking and sleeping hours. They’re there to help with the daily tasks your parent can’t safely do alone, to notice changes, to be the second set of eyes and hands. It’s full-time presence without moving, without losing the place that feels like home.
On a typical day, you’ll see help with bathing, dressing, meals, medications, light housekeeping, and errands. The caregiver is there when your parent wakes up and when they go to bed. They catch falls before they happen. They recognize a medication mix-up or a sudden change in mood. They cook, they listen, they stay calm when things get hard. Your parent isn’t alone, and you’re not managing everything from a distance.
Many Hampton families come to us right after discharge from Windham Hospital, when it’s clear that home is where your parent wants to recover, but they need real support to do it safely. We’re nurse-founded, which means we know how to read a care plan, how to spot what matters, and how to match the right person to the right family. We understand that Live-In Care isn’t about tasks, it’s about presence and trust.
Our founder is a nurse who watched families struggle with part-time help and parents who refused to leave home. We built Live-In Care around the reality that your parent needs someone there, consistently, someone who learns their rhythm and their preferences. That’s what we do.
We take time to understand your parent, their habits, what matters to them. We brief our caregivers fully and we listen to your feedback. We know that the right fit changes everything, and the wrong fit changes nothing.
If your caregiver is sick or a situation shifts, we’re reachable. We don’t disappear after the first week. You have a real person managing your care, not an algorithm, and that person knows you and your parent by name.
We know Windham Hospital’s discharge process, we know Hampton, we know what neighbors see and what doctors here care about. We’re not a national chain learning about your town. We live here too.

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

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 caregiver in your parent's home from early morning through bedtime, and overnight as needed. They help with bathing, dressing, toileting, meals, medication reminders, light housekeeping, laundry, and errands. They're there to prevent falls, catch changes in health or mood, provide companionship, and give you peace of mind. It's not medical nursing, but it's the steady, daily presence that keeps someone safe and connected at home.
We can often arrange a caregiver within 24 to 72 hours of discharge if you call us right away. If your parent is still in the hospital, we recommend reaching out before discharge day so we can brief the caregiver on their specific needs and the plan from the hospital. We work with the discharge coordinators at Windham Hospital and understand the urgency. The faster you connect with us, the faster we can have someone ready.
No, Live-In Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover full-time in-home caregiving. We're honest about that from the start. What you're paying for is consistent, accountable presence from a real person who knows your parent and can be counted on every single day. Some families find that it costs less than assisted living, and your parent stays home. We can discuss costs when you call.
A home health aide typically comes for a few hours, a few times a week, and is usually ordered by a doctor or hospital for specific medical tasks. Live-In Care is full-time presence, seven days a week, in your parent's home. The caregiver is there all the time, not just during scheduled visits. It's a completely different level of support and a very different cost structure.
Yes, that's where we start. We ask detailed questions about your parent, what they need, what they like, what worries you most. We listen for personality fit as much as practical skills. We don't just send the next available caregiver, we try to match thoughtfully. And we stay in touch, because sometimes the fit needs adjustment and that's normal.
We have backup caregivers ready. We communicate with you as soon as possible, and we work to find a replacement quickly. Because we're local and we know our caregivers, we can usually cover gaps without disrupting your parent's routine. You're not left scrambling, and your parent isn't confused by a stranger on short notice.
