Kizuna was founded by two lifelong friends from Seattle who wanted to build the kind of home care experience they’d trust for their own families.
Both grew up close to their grandparents—who, as it happens, are also friends. Watching their families navigate the care landscape, they saw what worked and what didn’t. Agencies were expensive and impersonal. Hiring privately offered better care, but came with legal and logistical complexity most families aren’t equipped to handle.
Kizuna is a care collective that offers a more personalized and affordable alternative to traditional care agencies. We don’t assign the next available caregiver. Instead, we carefully match you with independent caregivers based on your specific care needs and preferences. Because we don’t take a cut of the caregiver’s hourly rate, families pay less while caregivers earn more. The result is greater control, flexibility, and transparency for everyone.
