Relief for Caregivers
Short-term, compassionate respite care for those holding it all together.
Caring for someone who is dying is one of the most profound acts of love—and one of the most exhausting. You’re juggling medical needs, emotions, visitors, and your own well-being, all while carrying the weight of responsibility and grief.
Even the most devoted caregivers need rest.
That’s where we step in.
What We Provide
Relief for Caregivers offers short-term, non-medical support so you can step away with peace of mind. Whether you need time to rest, take care of personal matters, or simply reconnect with yourself, we provide steady, compassionate presence for your loved one.
Each visit includes:
Up to 4 hours of gentle companionship (one-time or occasional)
Calm, grounded presence shaped by your loved one’s energy
Light comfort measures—soft music, reading aloud, aromatherapy, or quiet conversation
Thoughtful check-ins so you can truly disconnect and recharge
How You Might Use This Time
Even a short break can restore your spirit. You might:
Rest, nap, or take a long, uninterrupted shower
Attend your own appointments or run errands
Take a walk, call a friend, or do something that feeds your soul
Sit in stillness and remember who you are beyond this role
This isn’t selfish—it’s essential.
Caring for yourself helps you care for your loved one more fully.
What To Expect
We specialize in non-medical companionship rooted in presence, comfort, and connection.
We do not administer medications, assist with personal care, or replace hospice or home health aides.
We simply provide calm, caring attention—so you can take the break you need and deserve.
Our Approach to Pricing
We believe end-of-life planning should be accessible to everyone—regardless of income, background, or financial circumstances. Our sliding scale reflects the real differences in what people can afford while ensuring that everyone receives the same thoughtful, professional care.
This isn't about proving need. It's about trusting you to choose the tier that fits your current situation. If you're able to pay more, your generosity helps make this work accessible to others. If money is tight, we're here to support you at a lower cost.
We don't ask for documentation. We don't assign value based on what you pay. Every person receives the same care, attention, and respect.

I have a steady job or income source that allows me to live comfortably, if not luxuriously.
I have some savings, even if it's not as much as I'd like. I could handle a moderate financial emergency without it being catastrophic.
I have some debt (like student loans or a mortgage), but it's manageable and doesn't prevent me from meeting my needs.
I can afford to take a vacation most years, even if it's not extravagant.
I have some disposable income each month. I can occasionally buy new items and don't always have to opt for the cheapest option.

$99
For those with stable income who can meet basic needs but have little expendable income. You may have experienced financial instability or barriers tied to identity or background.

I can usually meet my basic needs, but it often requires careful budgeting and I sometimes struggle.
I have a job or income source, but it's not always stable or sufficient.
I have little to no savings. An unexpected expense of a few hundred dollars would be very difficult to manage.
I have debt that sometimes makes it hard to meet my basic needs.
Vacations are rare luxuries for me. If I do take time off, it's usually a "staycation" or visiting family.
I have very little disposable income. Most of my purchases are necessities, and I often have to choose the cheapest option.
