Organising care for a parent, partner or loved one can feel overwhelming.

You want them to stay in their own home, in familiar surroundings, with their independence intact, but you also need to know they're properly looked after.

That's exactly what Mycare is here for.
We connect you directly with experienced, verified care workers across New Zealand. You choose the person who feels right. You set the schedule. You stay in control and we're with you every step of the way.

Care That Feels Like Home

Staying in your own home matters. It's where we feel safe, comfortable and most like ourselves.

In-home care means your loved one can keep their daily routines, stay connected to their community, and live life on their own terms  - with the right support alongside them.

Whether they need a little help around the house, assistance with personal care or more regular support, we'll help you find the right person for the job.

We're Not an Agency and That Makes All the Difference

Most care agencies assign you a worker. You don't get a say. Mycare works differently.

We're an online platform, not an agency. That means you're in the driver's seat from the very beginning. You post what you need, browse profiles and choose the care worker who feels like the right fit. You agree on the schedule and the rate together.

No one is sent to your door without your approval. No middle person is deciding who looks after your whānau.
This approach gives you more control, more flexibility, and in many cases, more affordable care because you're working directly with your carer, without agency overhead.
