Elder Care, Sitter & I/DD Support.

We welcome inquiries throughout North Carolina. Our team will discuss your needs and confirm service availability and next steps. Submitting an inquiry does not book a caregiver or confirm staffing.

Support for your family
Tell us what kind of help you need.
Caregiver illness, an unexpected gap in care, or the need for a break can leave families looking for support. Start with a general inquiry; we will discuss the right next step with you.
Sitter & respite support
Ask about supervision and caregiver relief when a caregiver is ill, plans change unexpectedly, or your family needs a break. We will confirm whether appropriate staffing and support are available.
Request supportI/DD & crisis-support inquiries
Families of children and adults with I/DD can ask about appropriate support, including specialized crisis-support needs. This is a separate conversation from sitter or respite care. Our team will review readiness, staffing and the appropriate service or referral before accepting a case.

Does this sound familiar?
Support starts with the question you have today.
“I don't know where to start.”
Organize your questions and ask the team which next step may be appropriate.
“I'm helping from a distance.”
Start with family roles, communication preferences and a short list of practical priorities.
“We should prepare before we need to.”
Use a blank checklist to make important contacts and information easier for authorized people to find.
