“FirstLight has been a lifesaver!” – Stories From Encinitas Families Who Trust Our Care
- I have had several companies come in before, all pale in comparison to First Light. They are great with communication, flexible with scheduling to work … More around what you need and very well organized. They give added peace of mind that my family member is safe.
Shout out to Matt for helping me at every step. - Our family has found a true gem in First Light Home Care. From the very beginning, Owner Matt August has been an incredible partner in our Family’s home … More care journey. His expertise in the field is evident, as he excels at matching caregivers to our family’s unique needs.
Matt’s assistant Marisa, and Cassidy and Antonella, the caregivers assigned to us, are consistently attentive and compassionate. Their dedication to providing quality care has made a significant difference in our lives.
One of the most heartfelt moments was when Matt organized a sailing trip and joined my Mom and her husband to celebrate his birthday, honoring his passion for sailing before he lost his eyesight.
What truly sets this company apart is Matt’s commitment to going above and beyond for families like ours. If you’re considering home care options, I wholeheartedly recommend First Light Home Care. Their professionalism and personalized approach will surely put your mind at ease during this important decision. - Matt and his team were an absolute Godsend! From the moment we met Matt we were impressed. He assessed the situation, shared comprehensive feedback, and … More provided potential solutions for a family member’s short and long-term care. While we worked through the details of off-site long-term care, Matt and his team took excellent care of our ailing family member on a short-term basis. Not only did we feel confident with Matt and his team, however, our family member was always delighted to see her caregiver for the day. They cleaned and created an organised, safe space for her. They also served lunch, did the laundry, and even coloured with her.
Finding a trustworthy team to care for a loved one can be a daunting task, however, Matt brought calm to our family.
