Practical Altruism offers childcare, eldercare, and personal assistance on a sliding scale. We are a collaborative of independent contractors, not a business or an agency. We do meet twice monthly to support each other in refining the spiritual and technical aspects of our service.

As part of our altruism towards each other, we practice “client sharing”. For you this means that when your regular care provider is sick or otherwise unavailable, there will be someone you can trust to step in and ensure your needs continue to be met.

Each of our members have their own individual web pages where they present their skills, rates, and contact information. We allow you to choose who you are interested in working with depending on your needs and preferences. Please click on “Our Team” to review the list of our current caregivers and personal assistants, with links to each of their individual pages. Our general communication policy is to respond within 2 business days of your inquiry.
