Many New Westminster families don't need full-day care, just a few hours a week, the right kind. Our caregivers cover Queens Park and Uptown, Sapperton and McBride, Downtown and Quayside, and the rest of the city, on schedules that fit working families.
Older adults whose family wants them to stay in their own home, with help. The 'eyes-on a few times a week' service that prevents the bigger crises.
Hours and schedule
Four-hour minimum per visit. Most families start with one to three visits a week and adjust over time.
§
Steady hours in a vertical city.
New Westminster's hills and heritage staircases turn ordinary chores into exertion: laundry in the basement, groceries up from Columbia Street, the garden a flight below the kitchen. Hourly care takes the vertical work and the weekly logistics (meals, errands, medication reminders) and delivers them with attention attached. A few visits a week typically keeps a New West parent in the house they love and the family ahead of developments instead of behind them.

Hourly home care in New Westminster: what families ask.
Is medication management included at the hourly level?
Medication reminders, yes: the prompts and the watching that they happened. Where a plan needs clinical medication management, we'll say so and bring the right level of care.
Can visits handle the basement laundry?
Yes: light housekeeping and laundry are part of the service, and in New West that often specifically means being the one who does the stairs.
