About Bradley Home Care
Local, owner-led, and here for your family.
Bradley Home Care is a small, non-medical companion care agency based in Bethesda. We are getting ready to help older adults across Montgomery County stay at home with company, good meals and a tidy house, and give the families who love them a little room to breathe.
Our story
Why we started Bradley.
We started Bradley Home Care because our own families needed this kind of help, and finding someone you can trust shouldn’t feel like a gamble. Too often the choice is between a large agency where nobody knows your mother’s name and a stranger from an online listing.
“Tell us what a good day looks like. We’ll begin there.”
We will meet every family in person, hand-pick every companion, and check in after the very first visit. When you call, you will reach one of us.

The same familiar face
We match on personality and schedule, and keep the same companion week after week so trust can grow.
03
Owners you can reach
No call center. Questions, changes and concerns come straight to the people who run Bradley.
04
No long-term contract
Start with a few hours a week, add more when it helps, or pause any time. You stay in control.
Clear about what we do
What a Bradley companion does, and doesn’t.
Being honest about the line between companionship and medical or hands-on care is part of being trustworthy. If your parent needs more than we offer, we will say so and point you to the right kind of provider.
