We had an older family member coming in town for a wedding and worked with SmithLife to make sure she had a professional caregiver for several days while in the area. From initial contact through my family member's departure from DC, our experience with SmithLife was top notch.

The caregivers at SmithLife Homecare have been consistently friendly and helpful to my relative, and the staff has also been professional and helpful to me as we figured out the right level of care together.

Tracey S., Clarksburg, MD

I was pleased with the services of SmithLife Homecare. They were easy to work with and provided good assistance when I needed it.

Myrna S.

In the two and a half years Faustina has been my sisterโ€™s aide she has demonstrated unwavering kindness, patience, and professionalism. She gives 150%, every day. I live out of state and itโ€™s a comfort knowing Faustina is there, making sure my sisterโ€™s needs are met. She keeps me in the loop; calls my sister on her days off, just to check in. She understands my sisterโ€™s special needs and has the remarkable ability to listen and โ€œhearโ€ her. Faustina makes her laugh and smile, even under the most difficult of circumstances. Without her support my sister would not have the quality of life she enjoys. Faustina is our gem!

I would highly recommend SmithLife care for anyone looking for additional support for loved ones. The staff is incredible and worked with us to find the right amount of care and was also flexible when making changes. They consistently check in on how things are going and make sure everything is going well. The care providers were incredibly kind and willing to do anything that was asked of them. Couldn't have been happier with our decision to go with SmithLife Homecare.
