A live-in caregiver resides in the client’s home, providing around-the-clock support with planned rest periods and meal breaks. Hourly caregivers, on the other hand, work shift-based schedules (typically 4-12 hours at a time) making these roles ideal for those seeking flexibility. At Custom Home Care, we offer both live-in caregiver jobs in Chicago and flexible hourly caregiver positions to meet the needs of our clients and fit the schedules of our dedicated caregiving team.

Help with daily living activities such as personal hygiene, meal preparation, errands, companionship and mobility assistance for those who need it. While no specialized medical training is required, candidates must pass a background check and have a valid driver’s license, have caregiving experience, while also holding at least a high school diploma. All CHC caregiver team members are supported by experienced nurses and matched with clients based on compatibility and skill set to ensure the best possible client care experience.
