Mini’s Home Care is a non-medical home care agency founded in 2019 by Minerva Castaneda. After a rewarding yet challenging journey with her first venture, Dignity Home Care, Minerva faced significant health issues that forced her to re-evaluate her career. Despite these challenges, her commitment to caregiving never wavered. Mini’s Home Care was born from Minerva’s lifelong commitment to the caregiving profession and her personal understanding of her client's needs, especially given her own health struggles. Our business name reflects Minerva's personal touch and philosophy of prioritizing quality care over volume, ensuring each client feels valued and well cared for.
After recovering and regaining strength, Minerva pursued and received a state license in 2019, allowing her to provide home care services once again. Today, Mini’s Home Care operates with a growing team of dedicated caregivers, each trained to meet the high standards set by Minerva herself. Our non-medical home care agency specializes in providing seniors with the care they need to maintain their independence and stay comfortable in their own homes, handling each case with the utmost respect and professionalism.
