Finding in-home caregiver jobs in Monrovia
Monrovia has fewer care employers than Arcadia, but a wider mix of them. CDPH's October 16, 2026 file lists Monrovia Memorial Hospital on S. Heliotrope Avenue, a general acute care hospital licensed for 49 beds; Monrovia Gardens Healthcare Center on W. Duarte Road, a skilled nursing facility with 95 beds; two home health agencies, First Light Home Health Services on W. Foothill Boulevard and Brightlane of California on S. Myrtle Avenue; Helpful Hands Hospice Care; and two dialysis centers. Arcadia Adult Day Health Care is licensed at a Monrovia address on E. Huntington Drive. Assisted living adds more: Brookdale Monrovia, Glen Park at Monrovia and two cottages on Royal Oaks Drive all hire caregivers of their own.
When you write your profile for Monrovia families, think about who lives here. In ACS 2020–2024, 45.2% of residents are Hispanic or Latino and 30.1% of residents aged five or older speak Spanish at home; 7.0% speak it with limited English. Most households rent (53.7%). Older residents are a smaller share than in Arcadia, 14.7%, so many jobs will come from adult children arranging help for a parent at home. Requests from Monrovia families are added to the list above as they are published.

Caregiver pay in Monrovia: how much caregivers make
Public figures first, then what they mean for private work. Statistics describe employed aides across the Los Angeles–Long Beach–Anaheim MSA (Los Angeles and Orange counties); private rates on CaregiverConnect are agreed between each caregiver and family and are not tracked by any agency.
| Measure | Hourly | Source and coverage |
|---|---|---|
| Home health and personal care aides, Los Angeles–Long Beach–Anaheim MSA (Los Angeles and Orange counties) | $16.50 median ($17.25 mean) | BLS OEWS, May 2025; 385,530 jobs; concentration 2.22× national |
| IHSS provider wage, Los Angeles County | $19.64 | CDSS; effective January 1, 2026 |
| California minimum wage | $16.90 | effective January 1, 2026 |
| Nursing assistants, Los Angeles–Long Beach–Anaheim MSA (Los Angeles and Orange counties) | $22.78 median | BLS OEWS, May 2025 (certified roles, for comparison) |
Who is the employer. A family that hires you directly is your employer under California's Domestic Worker Bill of Rights. The state minimum wage ($16.90 an hour from 1 January 2026; some cities set more, for example $17.75 in the City of San Diego) is the legal floor, and a personal attendant earns overtime at 1.5× after 9 hours in a day or 45 in a week. The main exceptions are IHSS recipients and an employer's own parent, spouse or child. Source: California DIR, Domestic Worker Bill of Rights FAQ.
EDD estimates put Monrovia's unemployment at about 5.0% of its labor force, on average, between August 2025 and August 2026. That is under Los Angeles County's 5.4% and California's 5.3% over the same months; the labor force averaged about 20,400 people. For caregivers the practical figures are the wages: an IHSS provider caring for a Monrovia resident earns $19.64 per authorized hour, and the steps to become one are in the IHSS guide for Los Angeles County.
UC Berkeley's local ordinance inventory has no entry for Monrovia, so private caregiving inside the city starts at the state minimum of $16.90. The county's $18.47 applies to work in unincorporated areas, including the county areas the city's own pages call unincorporated Monrovia, so check the client's address with DCBA if you are unsure. A household that employs you directly owes overtime after nine hours in a day or 45 in a week. Monrovia's ACS median household income is $96,021 and its median gross rent $2,114.
How to enroll as a provider in Los Angeles County, with the office phone lines and orientation steps, is in the IHSS Los Angeles County guide. IHSS wages for every county we cover, with effective dates, are in the IHSS pay by county guide.
How the public numbers relate to private rates, and what affects them, is covered in the caregiver pay guide.
Rules
Caregiver requirements in California, applied to Monrovia
Monrovia sets no rules of its own for caregivers. Hired directly by a family for non-medical help, you need no license. Comfort Keepers – Monrovia, Home Instead Senior Care #304 and St. John Companion Care held Monrovia home care organization licenses in CDSS's May 2025 file; they can place you only after you register on the Home Care Aide Registry. Monrovia Memorial Hospital and Monrovia Gardens hire certified nursing assistants, and the two CDPH-licensed home health agencies need certified home health aides for aide visits. IHSS providers enroll through DPSS and complete orientation and fingerprinting. You are a mandated reporter of elder abuse. The county page and the requirements guide cover the detail.
