Your sister noticed it first at Thanksgiving, sitting across the table at your parents’ house on Chesterfield Road. Your mom wasn’t herself, moving slowly, forgetting what she’d just said.

Call (475) 264-4830 Learn how it works
Live-In Care is a caregiver in your home, full time, who handles daily living, meals, medication reminders, light housekeeping, and being there. Not medical nursing, but the steady presence that means your parent stays in their own place and you’re not making emergency decisions at midnight.
Day to day, you’ll see meals happen. You’ll see your parent taking their medications on time. You’ll see someone who knows their routine, their preferences, their stories. There’s someone there when they wake up and someone there at night. You can work. You can breathe. You know what’s happening because you’re connected, not because you’re doing it all yourself.
In Montville, many families choose Live-In Care after discharge from William W. Backus Hospital or when they realize assisted living just isn’t going to work for their parent. We were founded by nurses, so we understand what full-time presence actually requires, the hand-off from hospital care, and the difference between looking in on someone and living with them.
Your parent built their life here in Montville. They know the quiet streets, the neighbors, the rooms. We’re nurse-founded, so we know that moving someone out of their home when they refuse isn’t always the answer. Live-In Care lets them age right where they are, with support that meets them there.
We don’t send someone who just needs a pulse. We learn what your parent needs, who they might get along with, what their day looks like. Then we put someone with them who fits. You’re not constantly adjusting or wondering if the match will hold.
When things change, you don’t have to figure it out alone. We’re reachable. If a medication interaction shows up, if your parent’s mobility shifts, if you need to adjust the schedule, you call us and we move with you.
We know Montville, Waterford, Groton, New London, Norwich. We work with William W. Backus Hospital regularly and understand their discharge process. That familiarity means faster, smoother transitions for your family.

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 prepares breakfast, helps with bathing or grooming if needed, reminds your parent to take medications, makes lunch and dinner, handles light housekeeping, does laundry, and is there throughout the day and night. They're not a medical nurse, but they watch for changes, keep your parent company, and call you or us if something feels different. It's the person there from morning until the routine winds down.
We can often match and place a caregiver within a few days of discharge if you reach out to us early. The sooner we know your parent's situation, the more time we have to find the right person and brief them on any hospital instructions, medications, or restrictions. We coordinate with the hospital's discharge team to make sure everyone's on the same page.
Live-In Care is private pay, meaning you cover the cost directly. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover round-the-clock in-home caregiving. That said, some families use HSA funds or long-term care insurance if they have it. We're happy to talk about cost and what it looks like for your situation.
A home health aide typically comes a few hours a day and focuses on personal care and ADLs. Live-In Care is someone present 24/7, handling meals, daily routines, medication reminders, and being there at night. It's the difference between a few visits a week and someone actually living in your parent's home. The scope is broader and the presence is constant.
Yes. We talk through your parent's personality, routines, health needs, and what matters most to them. Do they need someone patient and quiet, or someone who engages and talks? Are there dietary or cultural preferences? Do they need help with mobility? We use that information to find someone who fits, not just someone available.
We have backup coverage. If a caregiver is sick or needs time off, we arrange a trained replacement so there's no gap in care. You're not scrambling or asking your parent to adjust to complete strangers. We keep continuity in mind and work to minimize disruption.
