My father is 92 and refuses a care service because he does not want strangers in the flat. What can we do?

A common situation. We take it slowly — often with a first visit where no care happens at all, only a conversation. Our staff are experienced at building trust. The resistance usually dissolves within a few visits.

Can you accompany a concert-goer to a performance?

Yes — in Wilmersdorf this is almost a speciality of ours. Accompaniment to the Berliner Philharmonie, the Deutsche Oper, the concert halls — with staff who are at ease with the music and the etiquette.

What does round-the-clock care cost in a six-room pre-war flat?

The size of the flat makes no difference to the price — what matters is the qualification required for each shift and whether the night is worked actively or on call. You will get a concrete monthly figure at the first meeting, once we have established what is needed.

Care in Wilmersdorf — in a quarter of old flats and old learning

Wilmersdorf is a district with a character of its own. The grand late-nineteenth-century buildings between Olivaer Platz, the Bayerisches Viertel, the Volkspark and Ludwigkirchplatz have housed Berlin’s educated middle class for generations — lawyers, doctors, professors, art historians. Those residents are growing old, often very old. And they usually want to stay in their flats.

We have been providing care in Wilmersdorf for years. We know what these flats look like — high ceilings, dark furniture, libraries full of books, a patina that tells a story. And we know what care in such a flat should look like: respectful, quiet, and careful not to damage the character of the place.

What we do particularly well in Wilmersdorf

Companionship for academics living alone:: Often without children, often with siblings, nephews or nieces far away. Someone alone in a five-room flat in Wilmersdorf usually needs more than care — they need someone who can hold up their end of a conversation.
Round-the-clock care in large flats:: Where there are many rooms, a 24/7 team can be accommodated comfortably without getting in each other’s way. A bedroom for the night shift, quiet rooms for breaks.
Discretion towards the other residents:: The community in these buildings is often close-knit. We arrive unobtrusively, avoid drawing attention and protect our clients’ privacy.
