You're Probably Here Because of One of These

  • Dad won't accept help from family.

    He'll often accept it from someone whose job it is. That distinction is most of our work.

    Personal care assistance

  • Mom hasn't been steady since the hospital.

    The first two weeks at home are when most falls happen. We can be there inside that window.

    Safety & wellness check-ins

  • The fridge was almost empty when you visited.

    Meals are usually the first thing to go, and the first thing anyone notices.

    Meal prep & nutrition

  • He's repeating himself, and afternoons are worse.

    Familiar routine in a familiar home does more than most families expect.

    Companionship & dementia support

  • She's stopped driving, and now she's stopped going out.

    Missed appointments and unfilled prescriptions follow quickly, and so does the isolation.

    Transportation & errands

  • You live three hours away and you're guessing.

    Someone in the house twice a week changes what you know about how she's doing.

    How it works

Where We Help, and Where We Don't

Most agencies will tell you they can do anything. Here's where we're genuinely useful, and where you'd be better served by someone else.

We're a good fit if

  • You can work with a minimum of four hours per visit, 16 to 20 hours a week — roughly $560 to $760 a week at our rates, before any insurance.
  • Your parent needs help with bathing, dressing, meals, medication reminders, or getting to appointments.
  • You want the same small team of aides rather than whoever is free that day.
  • You want a registered nurse overseeing the plan of care.
  • You'd rather talk to the owner than a call center.

We're not the right fit if

  • What your parent needs is skilled medical care — wound care, injections, IV therapy. That calls for a home health agency, not us.
  • Moving your parent safely has started to take more than one person.
  • You need an hour at a time, or occasional cover between other arrangements.
  • The home needs some work before a caregiver could be safe there. We'll tell you what, either way.
  • Medication needs to be given rather than prompted. Our aides remind; they don't administer.

If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you on the first call — and point you to someone who is.

Peace Tsaku, MSW

Twenty-two years in home care, the last of them running this agency out of Tinton Falls rather than a franchise office in another state.

Every plan of care here is overseen by a registered nurse. The social workers on staff hold master's degrees, which matters more than it sounds like it should — it's usually how a family finds out about a state or community program nobody had mentioned to them.

Peace's direct line is 732-685-0786. When you call it, she answers. Not a receptionist, and not a national intake line.

Questions Families Ask First

What's the minimum we have to commit to?
The minimum is four hours per visit, 16 to 20 hours a week. At $35–$38 an hour that comes to roughly $560 to $760 a week before any insurance, and you get the exact figure at the free visit. Below that we can't staff it reliably with the same aides, and consistency is most of what makes this work.
How quickly can care actually start?
A free in-home visit within 48 hours of your call, and care starting one to three days after that. If we can't meet that for your situation, we'll tell you on the call rather than after the visit.
Does Medicare pay for this?
Traditional Medicare does not cover non-medical home care. Many Medicare Advantage plans do. We check your specific plan and verify the benefit before care begins, not after.
Will it be the same person each time?
Wherever we can staff it, yes — a small consistent team rather than whoever is available. If we can't promise that for your schedule, we'll say so upfront.
Are your aides certified and insured?
Certified by the New Jersey Board of Nursing, working for a business registered with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs as a Health Care Service Firm, with a registered nurse overseeing the plan of care.
What if we only need this for a few weeks?
That's common after a hospital discharge and it's completely fine. There are no long-term contracts.
