In-Home Care in Berkeley, CA

Licensed, compassionate home care for Berkeley families — from a team based right here in West Contra Costa.

Excellence Home Care provides non-medical in-home care throughout Berkeley, from a few hours a week to full 24-hour support. Our Home Care Aides are registered with the California Home Care Aide Registry, background-checked, TB-cleared, and trained before their first shift — and we're about 20 minutes from North Berkeley BART.

Berkeley and Albany form our southern corridor, with parking and access planned into every visit so shifts start on time.

Services available in Berkeley

  • Personal Care — Hands-on help with bathing, dressing, grooming, mobility, and toileting — delivered with the dignity your loved one deserves.
  • Companion Care — Conversation, meals, errands, appointments, and a steady presence in the house. Loneliness is a health risk. We take it seriously.
  • Alzheimer's & Dementia Support — Patient, routine-based support from aides trained in redirection, cueing, and calm response to agitation and sundowning.
  • Respite Care — For the family caregiver who hasn't slept properly in months. A few hours or a few weeks — you're allowed to rest.
  • Post-Hospital Support — The first 30 days after a discharge are the riskiest. We cover rides, reminders, meals, and the follow-up nobody has energy for.
  • 24-Hour Care — Around-the-clock support when a few hours a day is no longer enough — without a move to a facility.
  • Serious Illness Companionship — Presence, comfort, and non-medical support alongside your hospice or palliative team — for your loved one and for the whole family.

Our caregivers regularly support clients with transportation to Alta Bates Summit Medical Center, the North Berkeley Senior Center, and appointments throughout the East Bay.
