Hire a verified caretaker for elderly parents at home
Day and live-in caretakers for elderly parents and for patients recovering at home — background-verified and matched to the level of help needed.
Prefer to talk it through? and we will take the requirement over the phone.
Most families look for a caretaker when a parent can no longer be alone during the day, or comes home from hospital needing help to move, eat and take medicines on time. It is personal work in a private home, so neato verifies before recommending — identity and Aadhaar, police verification records where available, a skill check and a documented profile.
Tell us on the request what the day looks like: mobility, medical routines, whether someone needs to be there overnight. We match against that rather than against the word “caretaker”.

About hiring a caretaker
Answers specific to this role. The full list of common questions is on the home page.
Is a caretaker the same as a nurse?
No. A caretaker helps with daily living — moving, bathing, eating, medicines on time and company. Medical procedures like injections or wound care need a trained nurse.
Can I hire a live-in caretaker for my parents?
Yes, where there is a room for them to stay. Live-in is the usual arrangement when a parent needs someone present overnight.
How much does an elderly caretaker cost?
Caretaker placements are quoted per request, because the hours and the level of care vary so much. Raise the request with the details and we come back with a figure before you commit.
