It broke my heart that when my husband and I had just started being new parents, my mother & father's health began deteriorating rapidly, and we could not be there for them the way we would have wished. With a newborn it was simply too much. Lakeshore Helping Hands became that lifeline we had never known we needed, they stepped in with such compassion and understanding that we finally felt some peace amidst the constant stress. It was a true weight off our shoulders during probably one of the most emotionally difficult times in our lives and cannot thank them enough. Highly recommend to any couple in the North Shore facing similar circumstances.

Lakeshore Helping Hands gave my dad steady, respectful support after his surgery. Scheduling was easy, caregivers were on time, and they handled transfers and meal prep safely. We felt cared for and informed. Highly recommend.

Lakeshore Helping Hands has been wonderful for my 87-year-old mother. The caregivers are punctual, patient, and respectful, helping with bathing, dressing, simple meals, and light housekeeping. What stood out to me was the calm way they encourage independence—my mom does what she can, and they step in safely for the rest. Communication is excellent: we get a short update after each visit, so the whole family knows how the day went and if supplies are running low. Scheduling has been reliable with no last-minute cancellations. My mom feels comfortable and has regained a routine, which has lowered everyone’s stress. Highly recommend.
My father was rapidly losing his ability to care for himself but was determined to remain at home in Highland Park, IL. My wife and I reached out to Lakeshore Helping Hands and immediately received a response from a senior team member who quickly arranged round-the-clock care. The company has been exceptionally responsive, and the quality of care and companionship my father now receives is outstanding. Their caregivers keep him engaged, safe, and comfortable, giving him a far better quality of life and giving my wife and me peace of mind knowing he is looked after with genuine care. I cannot recommend LHH enough to family & friends.

I never thought I’d get used to having someone in my home all the time, but the caregivers from Lakeshore Helping Hands make it easy. They help with the things I can’t manage anymore and, just as important, they spend time with me so my days feel better and more engaging. We go out together to dinners, movies & errands, the simple things I used to take for granted but couldn’t do on my own anymore. Making that first call wasn’t easy, but I’m thankful every day that I did. The caregivers are kind, patient, and never rush me. I feel safe, cared for, and supported, and my quality of life is so much better now and I no longer feel confined to my home. I’ve gotten so much of my life back, and I couldn’t have done it without Lakeshore Helping Hands.

I cannot recommend this agency highly enough for their exceptional caregiving services. When my family needed professional care for my dad, this agency exceeded our expectations in every way. From our first interaction, the owner was incredibly personable and made what could have been a stressful process feel manageable and comfortable. He took the time to understand our family's unique needs and worked collaboratively with us to create a care schedule that fit seamlessly into our routine. What truly sets this agency apart is the quality and consistency of their caregivers. Each professional sent was not only experienced and skilled, but genuinely warm and caring. It was clear that these weren't just employees doing a job: they truly cared about my dad’s wellbeing and formed meaningful connections with him. The reliability was outstanding; caregivers consistently showed up as scheduled, giving us complete peace of mind. The agency's commitment to matching the right caregivers with our family made all the difference. Working with them felt like a partnership rather than just a service arrangement. For any family seeking compassionate, professional, and reliable care, I wholeheartedly recommend this agency. They made a difficult time much easier for our entire family.

I am truly beyond grateful for Lakeshore Helping Hands for providing a caregiver for my mom with Alzheimer's Dementia who is beyond wonderful. Her kindness, patience, and compassion has brought comfort and peace to all of us. She treats my mom with dignity and respect, despite her declining health, we previously used another local caregiving company who we had trust issues after discovering inappropriate charges on my mom's credit card. Since that experience, I didn't think I'd trust someone to help my mom other than me. I cautiously decided to try Lakeshore Helping Hands, and have found the caregiver's presence to be calming and reassuring. I trust her complete, which is not easy given our previous experiences with the other local company. Lakeshore Helping Hands seems to be a smaller company that is focused on vetting and providing you with a caregiver who is a good match vs a larger company more concerned with hiring as many caregivers as possible to generate income. I am forever grateful for finding this company.
