[We would like to thank Angel and the caregivers at Starlight for helping us with our 85 year old mother. We had a sudden and difficult transition in moving Mom from the East Coast back to Northern California; this was complicated by a bad fall, which broke her ankle. Mom needed to finish recuperating here at our house, while we prepared her new permanent living facility. During this time, we had Starlight provide twice weekly support for bathing and other personal support. Reaching out for help for Mom was the right call! The caregivers were wonderful and gave us a much needed respite from round-the-clock support availability. We highly recommend Starlight Caregivers to anyone who is dealing with a similar situation. Thanks again to Angel and her team! Russell B., Los Altos Hills, CA]
