Where Small-Town Values Meet Professional Excellence
Stoneham families know the value of personal connections and trusted relationships. At FirstLight Home Care of Boston Northwest, we bring that same small-town approach to professional home care. Our founder’s journey began when he struggled to coordinate his father’s dementia care from afar, teaching him that the best care combines professional expertise with genuine personal investment. Today, we bring both to every Stoneham home we serve. Experience the difference at (781) 874‑9901.

The FirstLight Family Approach to Stoneham Care
Born from Personal Experience
“We’ve been in your shoes” reflects our CEO’s journey watching his father navigate dementia while he managed care from across the world. That experience drove him to become a Certified Dementia Practitioner and create the kind of care company he wished had existed. Every Stoneham family benefits from those hard-learned lessons.
Carefully Chosen Companions, Not Just Caregivers
In Stoneham, reputation matters. That’s why we only hire direct employees who pass national background checks and embrace our relationship-first philosophy. We match caregivers based on personality and shared interests—creating genuine connections that make care feel less like a service and more like a friend helping out.
Common-Sense Flexibility
We know Stoneham families are practical. Why pay for 20 hours when you need five? With no weekly minimums or long contracts, you get exactly the support you need. Whether it’s help during your work commute to Boston or round-the-clock care, we adjust to your reality.
Always Available, Always Reliable
Small towns value reliability, and so do we. Our 24/7 phone availability means you’ll always reach someone who knows your family’s situation—no answering services or call centers. When Stoneham families need us, we’re there.
Fair Pricing, Exceptional Value
We accept Long-Term Care Insurance and help veterans access VA benefits. Our transparent pricing and flexible scheduling help families manage costs without sacrificing quality. It’s about doing right by our neighbors—the Stoneham way.
