When an aging parent should not be left alone for long periods, but moving to a facility does not feel right, live-in care can provide another option.
Galaxy Home Care provides dependable live-in care in New York City, helping seniors remain safely and comfortably in the homes they know. We provide local live-in care services in Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan.
Our caregivers assist with personal care, mobility, meals, household routines, companionship, and other everyday needs based on an individualized care plan.
Whether your family needs support after a hospital stay or ongoing assistance for an aging loved one, we can help create a care arrangement around their needs, routines, and preferences.
Live-in care is designed to help older adults maintain as much independence as possible while receiving consistent support at home.
CONSISTENT SUPPORT CAN MAKE STAYING AT HOME POSSIBLE
Maybe Mom has started forgetting meals. Dad has become unsteady getting out of bed. A hospital discharge is approaching, but the family cannot provide enough help at home. Or a loved one with dementia has become increasingly confused or anxious when alone.
These situations do not automatically mean it is time to leave home. Live-in care can provide the assistance, routine, and familiar presence that help an older adult continue living safely and comfortably at home.
WHEN IS LIVE-IN CARE A GOOD OPTION?
Live-in care may be a good option when a senior should not remain alone for extended periods, needs regular help with personal care or mobility, is returning home after a hospital or rehab stay, or is living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia.
Small changes can also be warning signs: missed meals or medications, repeated questions, unexplained bruises, difficulty dressing, increased anxiety, or frequent late-night calls.
CARE THAT ADAPTS TO YOUR LOVED ONE
Every care plan is built around the senior’s daily routine, personal needs, mobility, preferences, and home environment. We match caregivers based on both care needs and compatibility.
SUPPORT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Galaxy Home Care provides dependable caregiver support and ongoing communication with families, helping loved ones remain safely at home while reducing pressure on relatives.
LIVE-IN CARE BUILT AROUND YOUR FAMILY
Your loved one’s needs come first. We learn about their daily routine, mobility, personal care needs, preferences, home environment, and family situation before developing the care plan.
Care can change as needs change. Live-in support may begin after hospitalization, during recovery, or when occasional caregiver visits are no longer enough.
Caregiver matching matters. Experience and skills are important, but so are personality, communication, patience, and compatibility.
We help families remain families. The goal is to reduce the daily pressure on relatives so they can spend more time being sons, daughters, spouses, and grandchildren instead of managing every caregiving task.
Galaxy Home Care is a life savior for our family. My mom suffered a devastating stroke in December rendering her handicapped and unable to live on her own. Navigating the Medicaid/Medicare maze became my full time job yielding very little results. If it wasn’t for the super knowledgeable, compassionate and overall professional Galaxy team, I still would have no dependable home care solution for my mom. They jumped through so many hoops and made everything work. Finally, somebody had my back! Thanks to Galaxy Home Care, they found a perfect home attendant for my mom, guided me through securing supplemental at-home services for her, and continue to provide lots of support and guidance as we move forward. Thank you, Galaxy Home Care!

Galaxy Home Care provides live-in care services throughout New York City, including:
Families can contact us to discuss availability and the most appropriate care arrangement for their location and needs.
The timing depends on the client’s needs, caregiver availability, location, and the type of care required.
If you know that a hospital discharge, surgery, or other transition is approaching, contact Galaxy Home Care as early as possible so there is enough time to assess the situation and arrange appropriate support.
Start by contacting Galaxy Home Care for a consultation.
We will discuss your loved one’s daily routine, personal care needs, mobility, health-related concerns, overnight needs, and family situation. Based on this information, we can develop an appropriate care plan and help match your loved one with a suitable caregiver.
Yes. Live-in care can be arranged on a short-term basis after hospitalization, surgery, rehabilitation, illness, or injury.
A caregiver can help with meals, dressing, mobility, household routines, and other daily needs while the person recovers at home. If ongoing assistance is needed, the care plan can be adjusted accordingly.
Yes. Live-in care can provide consistency, familiar routines, companionship, personal care assistance, meal support, and help with everyday activities for people living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia.
Having a consistent caregiver presence may also help reduce some of the risks associated with confusion, memory loss, and being left alone.
Not necessarily.
With live-in care, a caregiver stays in the client’s home and provides assistance according to an established schedule and care plan. The caregiver also requires designated time for rest and sleep.
With 24-hour care, caregivers typically work in shifts so someone can remain awake and available around the clock.
Live-in care can include overnight presence and assistance as outlined in the client’s care plan.
However, if your loved one requires frequent assistance throughout the night or someone who must remain awake and available at all times, a different caregiver schedule or additional caregiver may be needed.
The cost of live-in care depends on several factors, including the level of assistance required, the care schedule, the client’s location, and individual needs.
At Galaxy Home Care, every care plan is customized. Contact us for a consultation and a personalized estimate for live-in care in New York City.
Live-in care can include assistance with personal hygiene, dressing, mobility, meals, medication reminders, light housekeeping, companionship, errands, and daily routine
The exact services depend on the client’s individual needs and the care plan developed with the family.
Live-in care is often a good option for older adults who need consistent assistance with activities of daily living and should not remain alone for extended periods. It may also benefit people living with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, individuals with mobility limitations, and adults with disabilities.
Live-in care can also provide short-term support after hospitalization, surgery, illness, or rehabilitation while a person regains strength and independence at home.
I am currently employed with galaxy, upon hire I met with norielly whom was very sweet and helpful. Norielly was very welcoming and determined to help me with my concerns. She connected me with Emily whom has been my coordinator. Emily takes the time to assist me with my schedule which can sometimes be troublesome. She is a great support system. Sometimes cases may not be what you expected or have alot going on and shes always willing to listen and assist in anyway she can. Shes considerate with my travel time when connecting me with a case. Shes very respectful. Emily is very pleasant to deal with as we normally share a laugh or two. I have not come across many coordinators with the same aura which I will be forever grateful for. Emily makes my job a little easier. Shes a great asset to this agency.

Galaxy has been exceptional in providing the support and guidance we needed for my mom at home after hospitalization. Over the years, as mom's condition progressed, she needed to rely more on the support of her aides. Galaxy office staff work closely with our family, making sure mom continues to feel comfortable and safe. I cannot say enough about the integrity and professionalism of each of her aides. The effort of care and respect they have for her needs is evident. At Galaxy the admin and support staff go above and beyond and I am forever grateful!

We are incredibly grateful to have found Galaxy Homecare. Finding reliable and compassionate 24-hour care for my mother-in-law felt overwhelming, but their team guided us through every step of the process with patience and professionalism. They worked closely with us until we felt completely comfortable with each caregiver and have always been available to answer questions and help us make the best decisions for her care. Their flexibility, responsiveness, and genuine concern for individual needs have made a very difficult situation much easier for our family. We are truly very grateful for their support and care.

I am forever grateful to Galaxy Homecare for the love and care they gave my mother over so many years. Through every stage of her life, they treated her with such compassion, patience, and dignity—it truly felt like she was being cared for by family. As her needs changed, the caregivers were always attentive and gentle, adjusting seamlessly while making sure she was comfortable and respected. Administration worked incredibly closely with our family, always communicating, listening, and supporting us. We never felt alone in the process, which is something I will always be thankful for. The administration is responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind—qualities that are so important when you’re trusting someone with the care of a loved one. I will always carry deep gratitude for everything they did for my mom and our family. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for truly compassionate homecare.

Words cannot fully express to you how wonderful our family’s experience was with Galaxy Home Care, but I’ll try my best. My aunt fell and was admitted to truly horrific rehab center in Bay Ridge. The staff were mean, insensitive, and at times neglectful of her and the other patients in their care. I was there every day with her, but I was so scared to leave her at night. I was getting reports from her roommate that she was trying to climb out of bed and that the rehab staff were doing nothing to keep her safe. This prompted us to find a 24/7 bed side aid service which led us to Galaxy. They were super responsive, assigning her a night time aid on the same day we called and also getting coverage for her over a holiday weekend. The staff is all women, and they are very experienced in caring for people with dementia/Alzheimer’s. Many of the women were wonderful with my aunt, encouraging her to go to her PT/OT as well as getting her to participate in the nursing home social activities. While there were some that she preferred over others, most of the female aids that worked with my aunt knew what they were doing and were confident in taking over without me needing to show them how to be with her. We did have concerns over one aid (more a personality mismatch with my aunt), but the office coordinators and her case manager were wonderful in receiving our feedback and also worked to get staff that she did well with onto her schedule. I cannot thank Galaxy home care enough in helping my aunt during a really challenging time in her life. They also gave me peace of mind in (especially when I left at night) so I could rest and return during the days fully recharged. Thank you so much for the patient and loving care you gave to my aunt.

It is with great pleasure that I write this review about Galaxy Homecare. Choosing homecare for yourself your loved one is not easy and can be quite emotional too. Everyone at Galaxy made my experience wonderful. Starting with Ben, what can I say, the best person to help you navigate during these trying times and Natalie, an absolute treasure to the company. Of course, everyone else at Galaxy as well. Their home care personnel are top notch!! I highly recommend Galaxy Home care for you or your loved one!! Thank you.

I can't say enough about the service Ben at Galaxy provided to ensure I had the best care possible for my 89 year old father who had dimentia and also took a fall recently. Ben took the time to really understand our needs as a family, given the challenging circumstances with his recent fall that immobilized my father to a degree. We were given the services of Kalu Odin whom for a month, who took care of my father like he was his own son, and I felt Kalu to be part of the family. He was absolutely attentive in every aspect and truly helped my father's recovery process. He loves what he does, and it shows with his empathy and his diligence with dad, who took a great liking to Kalu. Dad is doing much better, and I attribute that to Kalu ,Ben, and the Galaxy team!

I can't say enough about how wonderful Galaxy Home Care was for my father. They were extremely responsive to our need for an immediate Aide and the Aides that helped him were amazing! We could not have asked for more caring, knowledgable, helpful, trustworthy and overall wonderful people.

Galaxy Home Care came into my life when my mother was sent home from a SNF in no shape to be left alone. Ben explained how the agency could help. We have met many kind, caring HHA's. If I ever need to use an agency again, I would definitely contact Galaxy Home Care.

Everyone is very helpful, especially Ben Kalika, who is always available or, if he is with another client, always calls you back immediately. And, the aide who worked with my mother, Guerlyne Jean Baptiste, is a wonderful, caring and compassionate person with great skills in working with elderly people. I could not have asked for more. Thank you.
