About Just Like Family Home Care  

Just Like Family Home Care is a Canadian-owned and operated home care agency with a mission to help individuals live safely and comfortably in their own homes. We specialize in non-medical, in-home support services including personal care, companionship, respite care, and household assistance. Serving families across Canada, including the Newmarket, Aurora, and Bradford region, we are committed to treating every client with the same compassion and respect we would offer our own loved ones. At Just Like Family, we don’t just provide care — we build meaningful relationships that make a real difference.  At Just Like Family, we believe that care should feel just like home—respectful, attentive, and delivered with heart. Our caregivers come from a variety of backgrounds, but all share the same mission: supporting our clients with dignity, reliability, and compassion.  

Job Summary:  

As a Personal Support Worker, you'll provide compassionate in-home support that helps seniors remain safe, comfortable, and independent in the place they call home. 

You'll work closely with clients, families, fellow caregivers, and our nursing team to provide thoughtful, relationship-focused care tailored to each client's goals, routines, and preferences. 

Home care gives you the opportunity to slow down, get to know the people you support, and become an important part of their lives and their care journey.
