Live-In Care is one caregiver in your home, night and day. They’re not medical staff, but they’re trained to manage daily living, medication reminders, mobility, meals, and the everyday safety that lets your parent stay in the house they know. It’s the alternative when assisted living isn’t an option because your parent has said no, or when the risk of being alone has become too real.
On a typical day, you’ll see meals prepared and eaten, medications taken on time, light housekeeping, laundry done, appointments kept, and someone there when your parent wakes up at 3 a.m. worried about something. The caregiver tracks patterns, notices changes, and reports back to you. Your parent gets routine and familiar faces instead of a rotation of strangers.
Families in Weston often turn to us after a hospital stay at Norwalk Hospital, when discharge planners make clear that going home alone isn’t safe. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand what questions to ask during that transition and how to set up a home for success from day one. That background shapes how we screen, train, and place every caregiver.
We started here because one of us watched a parent need more than part-time help could provide. That means we know what full-time presence actually requires, and we don’t oversell or undersell what Live-In Care can do. We speak the language of both doctors and family members.
We don’t hand you a name and a start date. We brief our caregivers on your parent’s habits, preferences, fears, and routines. We listen to what you need. The fit matters, and we’ve seen what happens when it doesn’t, so we get it right from the start.
Your parent’s needs shift. A caregiver gets sick. You have questions at 10 p.m. We’re here, and we’re local. You’re not reaching a call center in another state. You’re talking to someone who knows Weston and Fairfield County.
We work with case managers and discharge planners at Norwalk Hospital regularly. We understand their timelines and their concerns. When your parent is ready to go home, we can start immediately, and we’ll coordinate directly with the hospital about what they need to know.

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.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A Live-In caregiver is there for meals, medication reminders, help with bathing and dressing, toileting, mobility around the house, and companionship. They handle light housekeeping, laundry, and grocery shopping. They're not nurses, so they don't administer injections or manage wounds, but they watch for changes and report them to you. They're the person who's awake when your parent needs something at 2 a.m.
We can often start within 48 to 72 hours if we know about the discharge in advance. If you're coordinating with Norwalk Hospital's case management team, let them know you're working with us, and we'll sync up directly. We keep backup caregivers available for urgent situations so your parent isn't sent home to an empty house.
Live-In Care is private pay, meaning you cover the cost directly. Medicare doesn't cover custodial care at home, and most insurance plans don't either. We're transparent about our rates upfront, and we can discuss what a typical week costs so you can plan. Some families explore Medicaid options, and we can point you to resources that help.
A home health aide typically comes for a few hours a day and is usually ordered by a doctor for post-discharge recovery or a specific condition. Live-In Care is full-time presence, day and night, with no medical supervision required. It's about safety and routine, not therapy or skilled care. Home health aides clock out; a Live-In caregiver is there.
Yes. We'll ask you detailed questions about your parent's personality, habits, what they care about, and any specific needs, like mobility support or experience with memory issues. We'll brief the caregiver thoroughly before the first day. We're small enough to know our people and what they're good at, so the match is real.
We maintain backup coverage so there's always someone ready. If your regular caregiver is sick or needs a day off, we fill that shift with someone we've already matched to your parent or a trained substitute who knows the routine. You won't be scrambling, and your parent won't be alone.
