The Purple house team provides excellent care to their clients - in the client’s home and at their lovely respite facility in Lindsay. The team is flexible, accommodating, and incredibly professional - I feel completely confident about the care my parents receive. I could not have navigated caregiving for both of my parents without the support, guidance, experience and expertise of the hardworking team at Purple House.

Went to their open house and was genuinely impressed with the amount of detail and care they took when renovating the beautiful property. Everything's to code, properly licensed, and designed with help from DementiAbility Enterprises, so you can rest assured putting your loved one in their for respite. My interactions with the owner were excellent and her over 30 staff members were happy and friendly. Welcoming place and great environment. Keep up the great work!!

Melanie and her team of caregivers have been very supportive to my mom and our family. Easy communication, flexible with changes to our needs and always reached out when there was something that we needed to know. Melanie herself went above and beyond to make things work out and at a critical time was able to be the person who we all could count on to “be there “ for mom. Getting mom to appointments and even making Christmas cookies. Nothing seemed too big or too small. Thank you Purple House!
