Why Choosing a Local, Family-Owned Aged Care Provider Matters for You
When it comes to choosing in-home aged care, the provider you select makes all the difference to your quality of life, peace of mind, and sense of trust. At Circle Home Care, we are a local, family-owned business supporting clients in Brighton, Elwood, South Melbourne, Albert Park, and Middle Park. Our values are grounded in respect, compassion, and genuine care — because we live and work in the same communities we serve.
Unlike larger national providers, you’re not just a number with us. You receive personalised care, direct access to decision-makers, and the assurance that your wellbeing is our priority, not a corporate KPI.
Decades of Experience You Can Trust
Brad, our care director, brings over 30 years of hands-on experience in aged care, community care, and palliative care. This means the care you receive isn’t just about ticking compliance boxes — it’s guided by deep clinical knowledge, lived experience, and a true understanding of the challenges you and your family face as you age. From navigating complex care needs to ensuring you feel safe and supported at home, we know how to deliver care that adapts to you.
Finding the Right Carers for You
Our other Director, Lucy, has 15 years of expertise in recruitment, including nursing agency experience. What does this mean for you? It means we know exactly how to find, attract, and retain empathetic and compassionate staff who are the right fit for your personality and your care needs. We don’t just place carers in your home — we match you with someone who genuinely connects with you and makes your day brighter. And if it isn’t the right fit, we act quickly to find someone who is.
The Local Advantage
Being based right here in Melbourne’s inner bayside suburbs means we’re close to you — not operating from a call centre interstate. When you need support in Brighton, Elwood, South Melbourne, Albert Park, or Middle Park, we can respond quickly. Our team knows the local community, understands the services available in your area, and can recommend trusted local allied health providers, GPs, and support networks.
Another benefit of working with a family-owned business like Circle is accessibility. When you need support, you won’t be left waiting on hold or passed from one department to another. You can contact us directly and, if required, speak with one of our Directors. This means you’ll get answers and solutions quickly, from someone who is directly involved in the day-to-day running of the business and empowered to make decisions on the spot. That’s the kind of responsiveness and accountability you won’t find with larger providers.
When you choose Circle, you’re not only choosing high-quality care - you’re choosing neighbours who are invested in your wellbeing.
