Ms. Jones came to my mother's home and conducted a comprehensive evaluation of my mother's abilities and needs after a series of my mother's health emergencies. Ms. Jones was observant, compassionate, and very helpful in setting up a plan for scheduling in-home care. She gained my mother's trust which was an important step. A combination of my mother's improved condition, along with a family decision to ultimately limit the amount of care my mother needed, led us to eventually choose another path for the time being. Ms. Jones was more than understanding of our situation, and offered very helpful advice that guided our way forward. As my mother's needs evolve in the future, I can say that we would definitely seek the services of Envisage Care again. Thanks to Ms. Jones and all at Envisage who were so supportive of us during this difficult period. - Michael Lawrence Washington, DC

I can't speak highly enough about the responsiveness and professionalism of Felicia Jones of…read moreEnvisage Care. I was connected with her through a friend. She contacted me right away on a Saturday night and took the time to listen to my needs for extended care for an elderly relative. By the next day not only was she working on a plan to make this happen, she provided me with other relevant referrals and resources I would need for a smooth transition. As it turned out, we did not end up needing the services at this time as another family member will be resuming care. But I have no doubt we would have been delighted with this partnership and should circumstances change, I know I will call Envisage Care immediately.

The transition was very smooth and the second doula was wonderful! Mary was especially helpful throughout the process. As first-time parents, we really appreciated her support and guidance. Mary helped us during the evenings, which worked perfectly for our schedule. We were so happy with the experience that we even extended the original contract by another week. Overall, we're very grateful for their help and would happily recommend them to other new parents.

Danielle S was very nice, and I would be happy for her to come again. It sounds like she has good experience for the role. We had one incident where she took out 3 colors of play dough and was making shapes with the stamps......... ON THE CARPET. She didn't realize she was creating the marks (leaving play dough stuck in the carpet) and didn't realize it was a carpet (she said she thought it was a play mat). I think we all make mistakes. She apologized. She didn't blame my son. He has never done play dough anywhere on the floor or carpet, and never used more than one color. I read on the internet that one needs to wait for it to dry before trying to remove it. I contacted the company later that day and very politely asked "what are we going to do about it if it doesn't come off?" The admin lady blamed my child knowing nothing about the situation. She said the kid probably told her to do it... and more blaming things, which were completely not true. She said she would speak to a supervisor and get back to me. She, nor anyone did get back with me. That's very unprofessional with not covering for your employee's mistake, and getting back to me.

Finding Philia was the best thing that could have happened to our day care/nanny search. My husband…read moreand I were completely overwhelmed by the Washington, DC day care machine and really wanted a nanny once our child starts needing care. We found a neighbor to start a nanny share with and then dove head first into scouring the internet/care.com to find a nanny. What an overwhelming process! Then we found Philia and it just seemed too good to be a true - an organization that finds the nanny for you? That does all the pre-check work (background checks, interviews)? That handles all the administrative end of nannying (workers comp, insurance, payroll taxes)? How could it get better? Well it does. After a few emails with owner Kira, and then our initial in-person meeting, my husband and I were thrilled. Kira is passionate about her company and the services Philia offers and her response time & customer service are top notch. We have already met with and secured a nanny for our soon-to-be-arriving first child all thanks to Kira & Philia. Kira listens to your needs and wants and then she provides you with nannies that fit the bill. She takes SO MUCH of the time & stress out of nanny searching and we really couldn't be happier that we have started working with them for our childcare. Philia really, truly is DC's best kept secret right now!

Having worked with other local agencies in the past, I can tell you they are head and shoulders above the rest.. There really is no comparison, I'm so glad I found them. The caregivers are always very professional and quite knowledgeable and always punctual and eager to be of assistance.. The office staff are always very polite, friendly and helpful and have never once disappointed.. I have complete trust and faith they will come through for me time and time again as always during a very difficult time in my life.. I don't take the time to write very many reviews, you have to be either really bad or exceptionally good for me to take the time to write a review.. They have been so great to work with I definitely felt like they need to be recognized here.. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of home healthcare services, clearly they are the best of the best.. Keep up the good work.

Without a doubt, I've been blown away by the staff and quality of services they provide! My mom is a very active, social person, and she participates in all the activities - she's always telling me about something exciting they are doing. From musical guests to special food tastings, outings to local attractions, and more. I especially want to comment on the smart, compassionate management of Seaton when folks get sick. They work hard to ensure residents stay healthy and are taken care of both physically and mentally if they need to pause in-person activities. I greatly appreciate the staff at Seaton. Su, Janae, Chef Musa, the entire staff - and the community who live there - are wonderful. Anyone looking to move to a retirement community like this would be lucky.

When she was informed that this lapse would be overlooked, but if it would happen a second time then we would have to dispense with her services, she quit. They never performed an initial assessment and after much difficulty making arrangements a nurse, with virtually no prior notice, arrived at the wrong designated time and precipitated a stressful situation. Their billing department is pathetic. They will send you a statement with new terms of agreement, but not the acknowledgement form to sign. Some of their administrative staff are rude and dismissive and engage in evasive verbal maneuvers -- an offensive affront to any responsible person. The second care giver never showed up for a scheduled appointment. She and Care Plus did not inform this client, so her basic necessities were neglected. But what is most irritating is that their care givers are not Covid tested while the Omicron variant is virulent.

From the very beginning, she demonstrated an exceptional level of patience, kindness, and professionalism that made a profound impact on my mother's recovery journey. She took the time to truly understand my mother's unique needs (short-term memory loss) and tailored therapy sessions accordingly. Sherene conducted weekly in-home therapy sessions which really helped to create space in my busy schedule by not having to provide transportation. Her calm and compassionate approach fostered a safe and encouraging environment that helped my mother regain not only her memory but also her confidence. She communicated clearly with me, keeping us informed every step of the way, and provided assessments to track milestones and progress. Thanks to Sherene's dedication and expertise, my mother has made incredible strides that we once thought might not be possible. I am grateful for the care and support she provided during one of the most challenging times in our lives. I would highly recommend Sherene to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate speech therapist.
