About

Guided by our vision to be an extended family caring for seniors across Canada, Just Like Family was founded in 2010 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

At JLF, we recognize the challenges families and seniors face during the aging process in Canada. We know families need more than a caregiver—they need support. Just Like Family will provide professional, compassionate care for your loved ones while supporting you with resources, choice, knowledge, and peace of mind.


In 2022, Just Like Family came under new management through a partnership of impact investors, including 51% ownership by charities. This Social Acquisition is the first of its kind in Canada. The majority of profits will go directly to charitable organizations, helping them make a bigger impact.


At Just Like Family, our mission is to transform the home care industry in Canada, opening the dialogue on the aging process. We strive to empower families to be better prepared for the challenges of aging, knowing they have the support of another family.

Testimonials

I tried several home care companies before but I wasn’t happy with them sending different caregivers all the time…Just Like Family has offered me the stability and consistency I needed for my dad to stay at home safe.

When I realized my mom’s Alzheimer is getting worse and she needs help I didn’t know where to start and what to do…but the people at Just Like Family gave me all the information I needed and since I started with them my mom is very happy and well taken care of.

Mary T. North Vancouver

What I like about Just Like Family’s Caregivers is that they are very caring and dependable so I trust them with my life.

Christine C. Langley

The connection my parents have with their Caregiver is that of a close friend, not an employee that provides a service, so they can’t wait for the days when she visits them.

Paul and Leeanne are great to work with. They are professional, empathetic, kind and totally understood my needs. They have amazing staff that are kind, caring and respectful adhering to Covid protocols. They were there for me when I needed their assistance with my elderly mother. They answered all my questions and truly supported us.... Just like Family. I highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed.
