Every day, our caregivers help older adults stay in the homes they love — sharing a meal, a walk, a conversation, and the steady support that lets someone keep their independence and dignity. If that's the kind of work that means something to you, we'd love to meet you.
Hillendale Home Care is looking for compassionate, reliable Caregivers and Home Care Aides (CNA, HHA, and experienced in-home caregivers all welcome) to serve seniors across Contra Costa and Alameda counties — Oakland, Walnut Creek, Fremont, Richmond, and surrounding communities.

What you'll earn
$22–26/hour, based on experience and level of care

Paid holidays, paid sick leave, and overtime
Health benefits and 401(k) eligibility
Paid orientation and paid on-the-job training — and we cover your Home Care Aide registration and TB test
Schedules that fit your life
We staff 4, 8, 10, and 12-hour shifts — days, evenings, overnights, weekdays, and weekends — and we build your schedule around your availability.
What you'll do
Help clients live comfortably and safely at home: personal care, mobility assistance, medication reminders, meal prep, light housekeeping, and escorting clients to appointments.
What we're looking for
A caring, dependable person who shows up for people
Home Care Services Bureau registration (we'll guide you through it and cover the cost)
A current TB test (we'll cover this too)
