Norma D.
Paul, the heart and soul of Homeinstead is dedicated to taking care of and servicing the needs of those depending upon him. He took on the difficult task of relocating my family twice. He has always been there for us! I could not have done this without you. Thank you.
Byron G.
We are grateful for finding Paul and his team. All of the caregivers are very kind, caring, and professional. The same is true of Paul. His communication with us and his team is always prompt and we feel we can reach out to him at any time for any reason. We’ve never doubted that our best interest is their first concern.

When I think of adjectives to describe Home Instead what comes to mind are: highly professional, knowledgeable and very competent. We were devastated when my husband was first diagnosed with Parkinson's. One can easily become overwhelmed with anxiety and not know what to do and where to start looking for help. We were impressed with Mr. Daniels when he first visited us. He asked and answered many questions in a kind and most respectful way. He placed a caregiver with us that fits quite perfectly with our family, as well as our family needs. The administrative side runs smoothly and hassle-free which was not our experience with a previous agency. I wholeheartedly recommend Home Instead.
Stacy B.
Every day, I'm grateful to have found Paul Daniels' Home Instead. Paul and his team have been truly wonderful, providing care for my 95-year-old dad. They're kind, friendly and cheerful with Dad, have expertise, and have exceeded my hopes on many occasions. Paul has a true genius for finding great people. The best!
Beverly G.
I have had nothing but a very positive experience from my Hone Instead caregivers. They are most willing and offer help, even if you think you don't need it. They'll adapt to your needs, your kitchen, and the "way you do things". And you'll not go a day without help when you need it. An added benefit, and a very important one, is the fact that Home Instead covers all legal requirements such as Social Security withholding, tax withholding, etc. Paul will work with you to arrange a workable schedule.

Kelvin W, Home Instead Winnetka
“My passion for supporting older adults is what inspired me to become a caregiver. I enjoy helping them stay in the comfort of their own homes with the care they need. Some of my favorite moments are simply sitting together and watching TV—just being present makes a difference. One important lesson I’ve learned is that it’s okay to say no when needed.”
Helpful FAQs
At Home Instead, we've helped families recognize those signs and build a care plan that supports independence—not takes it away.

- Missed medications, meals, or appointments
- Challenges with bathing, dressing, or mobility
- Increased forgetfulness or signs of memory loss

Still unsure? A care consultation is a great place to start. We'll listen, answer your questions, and help you explore your options—with no pressure or obligation.
Here's when home care might be the right step:
- You're juggling caregiving with work, family, and your own well-being
- Your loved one's needs are growing beyond what you can manage alone
- You're noticing signs of burnout, frustration, or fatigue
- You want a consistent, trusted partner to rely on
Home Instead Care Pros provide support that fits your routine—not the other way around. Whether it's meal prep, a walk, or help getting to appointments, our care is designed to enhance—not replace—your role.
You don't have to wait for a crisis. Most families who start care with us say they wish they had done it sooner.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer—but if your loved one wants to stay in their own home, in-home care can be the most personal, flexible, and reassuring option.
In-home care vs. assisted living
Assisted living can be great for those who want a communal setting and are ready to relocate. But if your loved one wants to stay at home, in-home care offers:
- One-on-one attention in familiar surroundings
- A flexible schedule that fits your lifestyle
- Support with meals, mobility, personal care, and companionship
- Help from Care Pros who get to know your loved one—building trust and routine
In-home care vs. hiring a private caregiver
Hiring an independent caregiver can seem less expensive—but it comes with risk. As the employer, you'd be responsible for payroll, insurance, and coverage when they can't show up.
With Home Instead, we handle everything:
- Professional hiring, training, and supervision
- Background checks, insurance, and 24/7 backup support
- Personalized matches and no long-term contracts
In-home care is all about helping your loved one stay independent, comfortable, and safe—right in the place they know and love. From simple companionship to specialized dementia support, our Care Pros are here to help make life easier.
Here's how it works with Home Instead Winnetka:
- We start with a conversation. We'll meet with you in your home—and listen closely. What does your loved one need help with? What do they enjoy? What's most important to them? This free consultation helps us create a customized care plan.
- We build your care team. We'll match your loved one with a trained, compassionate Care Pro based on skills, schedule, and compatibility. Many of our Care Pros speak Spanish and bring years of experience supporting chronic conditions or memory care.
- We start care quickly. We can often begin care within 48 hours. Services may include bathing, dressing, transportation, meal prep, medication reminders, and more. We also offer 24-hour care, dementia support, and hospice assistance.
- We stay connected. Our Winnetka office is available 24/7 for support. Your dedicated Care Manager will stay in touch to make sure everything's working—and adjust care as needs change.
It's care on your terms. Ready to get started?
At Home Instead, we don't just send a caregiver—we introduce you to a Care Pro. It's a title we take seriously, because our team members bring more than just help—they bring heart, consistency, and respect for the life your loved one has built.
Here's what sets our Winnetka Care Pros apart:
- They're trained and trustworthy. Each Care Pro goes through a thorough background check, drug screening, and extensive training—including how to support Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and chronic health conditions.
- They're employees—not contractors. That means we handle taxes, scheduling, and supervision. We also provide liability insurance and workers' comp, so you're fully protected.
- They're matched with care. We take time to match each Care Pro based on your loved one's personality, preferences, and needs. It's not just about filling a shift—it's about building a relationship.
- They show up, and we've got your back. If your regular Care Pro can't make it, we'll send a qualified backup—no scrambling on your end. Our 24/7 support line means help is always a call away.
