SHS has always provided quality care for us. They are responsive and dedicated to helping with every situation needed. I do recommend them. Sylvi the manager is a doll & very pleasant to work with. read more

First of all, note that I almost never give 5-star ratings, and my mom & I only used this agency for a short time, until a vacancy opened up for her in rehab. (Sorry to break your 5-star streak, Sylvie!) The cost is reasonable, and the shift hours are more flexible than other home help agencies. Sylvie was always responsive to any question or concern. When I contacted her with an urgent need for 24-hour care on short notice, she made a herculean effort to fill all the time slots, and came through for us. The agency seems to be highly selective in the caregivers they choose. Not only were the helpers generally more experienced than one finds in other agencies, they also appeared to be well-trained, resourceful, and highly intelligent. My mother has a long history of hostility toward home caregivers, and she did not like all of these caregivers either (although she did click with one of them, and there were a few others she probably could have come to like, given more time). However, I found all of them extremely kind, competent, and capable. My only issue was that some of them did leave a bit of a mess behind and disturbed my mom's impeccable arrangements of linens and other belongings somewhat. A minor matter, and partly my fault, for not leaving better instructions on how to find what they needed. Highly recommended. read more

Sylvie and her team helped me with my aunt. She was warm, friendly, and very accomodating with all our needs. The team made my aunt feel comfortable and she opened up to them which was always hard. Next time we need any help I will be calling Sylvie for sure! read more

Sylvie and Michael helped me move in and were great! They helped me unpack which seemed like an impossible task Highly recommended! read more

Sylvie and her caregivers provide wonderful companionship and care for my wife, who is experiencing memory loss. They are not just there to do a job. Each caregiver creates a relationship with her of "best friends." That personal companionship is as valuable as the physical care they provide. Sylvie is personally involved and very responsive to changing circumstances. Highly recommended. read more

My mom has been using this service for a few months now. There were insurance hoops to jump through at first. The owner, a lovely woman from France, was always gracious and helpful whenever assistance was needed and I had to contact the insurance company. She is patient and always made time for my questions. Obviously, though--it's the care my mom receives that matters the most. And my mom has been very pleased with her helpers. I think she has a primary one she works with, but when there has been a sub--she has always liked them too. It's so great knowing she's in good hands and getting what she needs! read more

Things have been easier for me since i discovered this organization. The three persons I have dealt with have been simply excellent in understanding my wants and needs, and in responding to them with alacrity. They obviously give sincere thought as to ways to assist me, and make excellent suggestions. I am most appreciative, and do recommend them without question. read more

Would like to very highly recommend Sylvie Hutchings of SENIORS-HELPING-SENIORS and her frequent helper-friend Michael on every count in every way. I am 75 with lower body weakness (sarcopenia) which greatly limits my independent living. Had a recent major house decluttering of 30 years of stuff but was still very much in need of many, many things to get "liveable" again. My computers needed rewiring, the closests rearranging, more bags needed to go to the dumpster or thrift store, not to mention laundry you name it. All I could find were regular house cleaners who dusted and vacuumed but did not or were not willing to do "whatever" needed to be done. After a month of searching, finding Sylvie was the answer to my prayers. They come once or twice a week for three hours and do whatever needs to be done with intelligence and energy. We have made real progress and they provide a great mental assurance. Over and above this, Sylvie and Michael are both very good and interesting people to work alongside. (They are full-service so as yet just around the house but could, for instance, get me to a dental appointment.) read more
