Aurora’s Trusted In Home Caregivers Bringing Comfort to Your Loved Ones
Caregiving Zen provides compassionate in home care across Aurora, offering personal support, companionship, dementia care, respite, and post-hospital assistance helping families nurture comfort, independence, and peace of mind every day.
Supporting Aurora Families in the Town We Work From
Aurora is home. Our office is here, our caregivers live here, and we are supporting several Aurora families at any given time.
About 9,560 Aurora residents are over 65 — roughly 15.4% of the town at the 2021 Census. What stands out is the rate of change: that number grew by about a third in the five years from 2016, the fastest increase of any municipality we serve. A great many Aurora households are having the conversation about home care for the first time, and most of them would rather not move a parent anywhere.
Care Across Aurora, From the Village to Rural Aurora
We work across Aurora Village, Aurora Highlands, Bayview Wellington, the Hills of St Andrew, Aurora Estates and out into rural Aurora. Being based in town means a caregiver is rarely more than a few minutes away, which matters most on the days when plans change.
Aurora's housing is mostly single detached homes, and that shapes almost every care plan we write. Stairs are usually where the conversation starts — getting up them safely, or rearranging life around the ground floor. We plan for the house as it actually is.
Where someone still wants to get to the Aurora Seniors' Centre on John West Way for a class or a game, getting them there is part of the plan, not an extra.

Care That Feels Personal, Reliable, and Rooted in Respect – Proudly Serving Aurora
How Our Services Work
Consultation and Planning
We start with a free in-home assessment to understand needs, preferences, and routines, then create a personalized care plan tailored to your family’s situation.
Caregiver Matching
We carefully select a caregiver based on personality, skills, and compatibility to ensure your loved one feels comfortable and supported throughout their care journey.
Monitoring and Support
We continuously review care plans, communicate with families, and make necessary adjustments to maintain quality, consistency, and satisfaction for every client we serve.
Coming Home From Southlake
Aurora has no hospital of its own. Most Aurora residents are admitted to and discharged from Southlake Regional Health Centre on Davis Drive in Newmarket, about ten minutes up Yonge Street.
Discharge is the moment care plans tend to fall apart. The hospital is ready before the house is — the bed is needed, the family is still arranging things, and someone is coming home to stairs they managed differently a week ago. We can have a caregiver in the home for that first night.
Publicly funded home care in Aurora is arranged through Ontario Health atHome's Central area. Plenty of families use both: the public allocation for clinical visits, and us for the hours around it.
