StarLight CareGivers, Inc.

We relied on StarLight caregivers around the clock when my father returned home from a recent hospital stay and needed extra care. He was frail (85 years old) and struggling with appetite problems. The wonderful, attentive StarLight caregivers fed him delicious food and coaxed him back to an almost 20-pound weight gain. Founder/owner Duanni H. is both compassionate and expert in assessing the problems of aging. She matched her caregivers to my father’s situation perfectly. Our family will be forever grateful to her, and to the brilliant caregivers who were assigned to care for our beloved father. I heartily recommend Starlight to anyone who is searching for highly competent, professional, and humane caregivers for their elderly loved ones.

Starlight caregivers came twice a week to help my father with taking him on walks, taking him shopping, and cooking meals. They've been extremely flexible with scheduling, and were always on time. Our last caregiver helped my father for an entire year, and was very interested in my father's general well-being in addition to her caregiver duties. She went above and beyond her duties. Duanni and her team were great to work with, very loving towards my family. We would still be using their services if my father had not passed away.

My father passed when he was 95 years old. We kept him at home as he was not a social person and loved to be home. StarLight provided us with * Full care, grooming, feeding, dressing, diapers, medicines, doctors, outings. * Staff responsible, arrived on time and good quality. * Office always responded right away. Over the years we went through many agencies, but StarLight was one of the ones we stayed with. Dad had dementia for many years and they helped us keep him going and allowed me to work. Duanni, Angel, and the caregivers were professional and caring.

Starlight Caregivers has been a lifesaver. When my mother left the hospital after a stroke, she was fragile and confused and could not be left alone, yet she was absolutely unwilling to live anywhere other than her own home. The situation had become an emergency when I called Starlight on a Thursday afternoon. By Sunday morning, Starlight had a complete team in place for 24/7 care and we were able to bring my mom home where a lovely caregiver was already waiting to greet her. I was extremely nervous about leaving my mother with strangers, but it has worked out far better than I had ever imagined. All of the caregivers have been extremely warm, competent, and helpful. There have been times when I know that my mother has been difficult to deal with, but everyone has been extremely patient and kind to her. Duanni and Angel are wonderful to work with. What has surprised me the most is how much they actually care about finding the right fit between the caregivers and client. After every shift, the caregiver writes up notes which the family can access on the website detailing what our mom ate and how she is doing. Overall communication is outstanding. Highly recommended!

I am very grateful for the truly extraordinary services provided by Starlight Caregivers. For approximately two years, the caregiver worked with my brother who is schizoaffective disordered, in his mid 50s, and active. My brother lives in a residential care facility, but needed 1:1 attention especially to go on outings and to help mitigate his undesirable behavior and habits. To say the least, he is very challenging not just because of his mental illness, but also for his personal hygiene issues, cantankerous personality, and another medical condition. My brother is often noncompliant and smart enough to be tricky to keep breaking rules. The caregiver had to constantly strategize to encourage my brother's cooperation. The caregiver would visit my brother primarily for a few hours two days a week, and on occasion, there would be excursions that would last about six hours; even to this day, Starlight is the only service I trust to take my brother on long day excursions. Besides what is typically expected of caregivers, Starlight did so much more (e.g., going with my brother to apply for a state issued identification card, helping him purchase a bicycle, etc.). Because my brother is not often lucid, it can be difficult to decipher if he was satisfied with the caregiving; however, when I see positive signs (e.g., he is showered, wearing clean clothes, etc.) and he is asking when the caregiver will be there again, I know a job well done was accomplished. I could call them with confidence knowing they would accommodate a schedule change as they would have various team members working on the matter. Their entire team is stellar, compassionate, and professional. I've hired services besides Starlight, and I will confidently say that Starlight is the best all around from dealing with my brother hands-on, communication, flexibility in scheduling, competitive rates, and reliability. There are not enough stars available to give them an appropriate rating. Starlight, thank you for all you've done. 

Wonderful caregivers. Great attention to detail. Duanni, Angel and the rest of the office staff were on top of everything so my mom was in good hands from the moment they came onboard. Can't recommend them enough.

My elderly parents needed caregiving support after my dad was discharged from a skilled nursing facility following a fall last summer. I contacted and met with representatives from five different agencies. Ultimately my mom and I decided on Starlight Caregivers. That was the best decision we could have made! Working with the Starlight team over these past 9 months has been a pleasure and such a relief. The team is super responsive, knowledgeable, and they keep me updated and informed via text. I know I can depend on an experienced caregiver for every shift that is scheduled, which is very reassuring. When my dad first got home, the Starlight team patiently helped my parents and me find caregivers that were a good fit for both of their needs. My dad needed a lot of supervision while he learned to navigate their home using a wheelchair and walker. He needed extra support with daily living tasks, as well as trips to the doctor. My mom also needed supervision and support as she is unsteady and a fall risk. The Starlight caregivers were kind, supportive, and so patient! My dad has since improved, but the benefits of having caregivers, who are also supportive companions, should not be undervalued. My parents are eating healthier, the house is tidy and safe, and they are able to get to appointments. In addition, they enjoy having a companion to talk and do activities with such as puzzles, baking, and taking walks. For me, knowing someone is there to watch over and care for them brings such relief and peace. And now with the pandemic, I know they are happier, healthier, and safer in their home than anywhere else they could be. I am so thankful that we selected Angel and the Starlight team to provide care for my parents. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great team to work with when in need of caregiving support.

This service is a Godsend. When my mother needed help in 2017, Duanni was there right away for a very thorough and compassionate assessment. Her caregiver staff were great, and any issues were handled sensitively and expediently. When I suddenly needed to increase my mother's care to 24-7, Angel had a staff put together for this within hours of calling her. I am enormously grateful that Starlight was there.
