Helping Atherton Families Care for Their Loved Ones at Home
As your family member gets older, you want them to stay in the home they love, but you can’t support them on your own. At Family Matters In-Home Care, we provide the same comforting care you’d give if you could be there, keeping them safe and happy in familiar surroundings.
Our founder, Carol Pardue-Spears, created our agency after caring for her own father, determined to provide home care in Atherton that feels like family. We’re here for you day or night, brightening your loved one’s life at home with warm companionship and attentive support.
Unlike corporate agencies, we don’t just send whoever is available; we take time to learn about your loved one and pair them with a caregiver who feels like the right fit. By fostering a genuine connection, we build trust, bringing comfort and joy into your loved one’s daily life.
