How it works
Book light housekeeping by the hour, starting from a one-hour visit, with no weekly minimum and no long-term contract. One hourly rate covers every Carenami service. Your dedicated Care Captain matches your parent with a background-checked caregiver, keeps the same caregiver on the schedule wherever possible, and adjusts the plan as needs change.
