The Live-in Caregiver Program:
and Home Care
The Canadian government established the Live-in Caregiver Program to address the
shortage of Canadian citizens/permanent residents that work in the care-giving
industry. Consequently, the program enables entities such as MPS Best-Care
Services to import caregivers from abroad to work in Canada.
A "Live-in caregiver" is defined as any person operating within a private household in Canada to care for one (or multiple) person (s) that is sick and/or disabled and/or elderly or an infant/young child.
The caregiver must meet the qualifications required of the program: At least a six months training in a live-in caregiver program from an accredited training center, and completion of a Canadian secondary education equivalency. A minimum of one year of relevant work experience, six months of which must be under the supervision of a single employer.
Caregivers:
The nannies are dedicated to providing premium care for
infants and young children, or children with special needs. The role of
the professional nanny is challenging and multi-faceted: Assisting with all
daily childcare tasks - meal preparation, laundry, cleaning, etc... -while
concurrently maintaining and enhancing a nurturing environment where the child
can enjoy optimal emotional, physical, and intellectual development. All
nannies registered with MPS Best-Care have been screened thoroughly for proper
training as well as high ethical standards. Best-Care nannies' purpose is
to enhance the well-being of your infant/child.

experience with a wide range of patient care: Beside the elderly, this
