Meet Sarah
Calm, patient care from someone who listens
Completed a Nursing Assistant training course at Avenue Hospital. I chose this work because I believe older people deserve to be cared for in the place they know best — their own home — by someone who respects their routines, privacy and dignity.
Before care begins, we agree clearly on duties, hours and who I contact if anything changes. Families always know what to expect.

Not sure if your estate is covered? Just ask.
What kind of care do you provide? +
Non-medical home care: elderly care and companionship, live-in and overnight care, personal care, mobility support, medication reminders, after-hospital, stroke and dementia support, hospital sitting and appointment accompaniment. See all services.
Are you a nurse? +
No. I'm a trained caregiver — I completed a Nursing Assistant course at Avenue Hospital. In Kenya, nursing is a regulated profession for nurses licensed by the Nursing Council of Kenya, so I don't do clinical tasks like injections, drips or wound dressing. Read the full caregiver vs nurse guide.
How much does a home caregiver cost in Nairobi and Kiambu? +
It depends on the number of hours, day or overnight, how many days a week, the location and the level of help needed. After a short conversation I'll give you a clear rate in writing, with no hidden charges. Transport for appointment visits is agreed separately. Read the full cost guide.
Can I book just a few hours? +
Yes. Visits can be a few hours, a full day, evenings, overnight, or several days in a row — whatever fits your loved one's needs and your family's schedule.
Which areas do you cover? +
I visit clients across Nairobi and Kiambu counties. See home care in Nairobi, home care in Kiambu or the areas page, and get in touch if your estate isn't listed — nearby areas can often be arranged.
I live abroad. How will I know my parent is OK? +
After each visit you'll get a short WhatsApp update — how they are, meals, medicines taken and anything I noticed — plus a photo if your parent agrees. For appointments you get a same-day summary. More for families abroad.
