In-home personal care
In-home personal care in Seattle, handled with dignity
Bathing, dressing, grooming, and using the bathroom are some of the most private parts of anyone's day. When they start to feel difficult or unsafe, the right help lets your loved one keep their routines — and their dignity — in the home they know best.
Snuggs & Huggs Senior Services provides respectful, personalized personal care for older adults throughout Greater Seattle, shaped around how your loved one already likes to live.
When personal care starts to help
Families often begin looking for help after noticing small changes: a parent who was always well put-together now skips showers, wears the same clothes for days, or seems nervous getting in and out of the tub. Sometimes the trigger is a fall, a hospital stay, or a new diagnosis. Sometimes it is simply that the spouse or adult child who has been helping can no longer do it alone.
Personal care can be a hand with the morning routine, help getting ready for the day, or support with more personal tasks as needs change over time.
Care shaped around the person
No two people like their morning the same way. Care begins with a focused two-hour family consultation about routines, preferences, personality, and priorities — how your loved one likes to bathe, what they prefer to wear, what makes them anxious, and what they would rather keep doing for themselves.
That conversation becomes a tailored care plan, so support fits the person rather than the other way around.
Choosing a caregiver you trust
Personal care depends on trust. You meet two to three caregiver options and choose the person who feels like the best fit. A 7–14 day monitored trial follows, with daily check-ins, and the arrangement is refined based on your family's feedback until it feels right.
Part of every care plan
Personal care is included in all three care options — Standard, Premium, and All-Inclusive — alongside meals, groceries, home management, and medication reminders. Premium and All-Inclusive Care add deeper coordination, daily digital family updates, and continuity with trained caregivers.

A thoughtful match, never a rushed placement.
Here's how care starts. Each step makes room for your loved one's preferences and your family's feedback before anything is settled.
Step 1
Family consultation
We begin with a focused two-hour conversation about routines, needs, personality, and priorities.
Step 2
Caregiver introductions
Meet two to three caregiver options so your family can make a comfortable, informed choice.
Step 3
Monitored trial
A 7–14 day trial includes daily check-ins and overnight monitoring when arranged.
Step 4
Refine the plan
We listen to feedback and adjust the care arrangement until it feels right for your loved one.
Each step is also offered as a premium add-on for an even smoother transition into care, and all of them come included with All-Inclusive Care. Ask about them during your free consultation.
Common questions
Personal care: questions families ask
Is personal care the same as medical home health care?
No. Personal care is non-medical help with everyday activities such as bathing, dressing, hygiene, and toileting. Care plans include medication reminders rather than medication administration. If your loved one needs skilled nursing or therapy, their doctor can advise on medical home health services.
What if my parent is uncomfortable accepting help with bathing?
That is very common, and it is one reason the process starts gently. The family consultation captures what matters to your loved one, you choose the caregiver together from two or three options, and the trial period gives everyone time to build trust. The plan is adjusted based on feedback until it feels right.
How is in-home personal care priced?
Care is personalized, so pricing depends on the level of support, the schedule, and the services your loved one needs. Call (206) 848-5121 for a clear recommendation and a current quote.
