How to find an in-home caregiver in Stanton
A good deal of licensed care operates inside Stanton. Fourteen CDPH-licensed home health and hospice agencies have offices in the city, Rowntree Gardens runs a skilled nursing unit on Dale Avenue, and the city's Community Services Department serves a senior lunch four days a week at the Civic Center. What none of them provides is the steady daily presence a parent may need: someone to help with the shower, make breakfast, watch that pills are taken, and stay through a long afternoon. That is the job to describe in your post. "Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Spanish speaker, help bathing and a ride to the Civic Center lunch" tells a caregiver exactly what you need.
Name the language at the start. Two in three Stanton residents aged five and up (67.9%) speak something besides English at home in ACS 2020–2024; Spanish accounts for 42.0% and Asian or Pacific Islander languages for 23.5%, and 16.7% of the city's people are Vietnamese. The caregiver list below updates as profiles are completed.

Choosing well
Evaluating caregivers in Stanton
Find out what kind of caregiver you are talking to, then check accordingly. Anyone presenting as a CNA or home health aide should be able to give you a CDPH certificate number. IHSS providers have been fingerprinted and have watched the county Public Authority's orientation videos. Aides from a licensed home care organization must be registered home care aides. A neighbor or family friend with no paperwork can still be a good fit for companionship, meals and help around the house when references support it. Call at least two people who have employed the caregiver, have your parent sit in on the final interview, and pay for one supervised trial shift before agreeing on a schedule. CaregiverConnect does not vet or background-check caregivers; a family may order its own background report once the caregiver agrees in writing.
Questions families here ask at interview
- ¿Habla usted español? My mother is most comfortable in Spanish. Or do you speak Vietnamese?
- Tell me about a time you supported a family while a hospice nurse was visiting. What did you handle between visits?
- Can you drive Dad to his appointments, or would you help us book the city's senior ride?
- How would you help Mom get to the Civic Center lunch by the 10:30 sign-in?
- What do you do if my father becomes confused and tries to leave the house at night?
- Are you comfortable helping with dialysis-day routines, such as meals and rest afterwards?
- If my mother is approved for IHSS, would you enroll as her provider?
Schedules and cost
What in-home care costs in Stanton: hourly rates and schedules
Lunch-day mornings. Monday to Thursday, about 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., including the 11 a.m. meal at the Civic Center. Hospice support. Overnight or long weekend shifts while a hospice team visits during the day. After a skilled nursing stay. A daily block of four or five hours during the first weeks home from rehabilitation, then fewer.
| Reference point | Hourly | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Employed aides, Los Angeles–Long Beach–Anaheim, CA metro (Los Angeles and Orange counties combined) | $16.50 median | BLS OEWS, May 2025 |
| IHSS provider wage, Orange County | $18.90 | CDSS; effective January 1, 2026 |
| California minimum wage | $16.90 | effective January 1, 2026 |
| Agency non-medical home care, California median (CareScout 2025) | $40.00 | CareScout Cost of Care Survey 2025 |
Who is the employer. When you hire a caregiver directly, you are a household 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.
Stanton is not on UC Berkeley's list of cities with their own minimum wage, which leaves the state's $16.90 hourly minimum as the floor when your household is the employer. Aides in the two-county Los Angeles and Orange metro had a $16.50 median wage in May 2025 (BLS), the county's IHSS providers are paid $18.90, and an agency hour of non-medical care had a $40 California median in CareScout's 2025 survey. A personal attendant you employ earns time and a half past nine hours a day or 45 a week. With half of Stanton households earning under $84,707 (ACS median), IHSS is worth checking early: CDSS requires a Medi-Cal eligibility determination, and Orange County SSA takes IHSS calls on (714) 825-3000.
No agency tracks private rates. A caregiver you hire directly will usually expect more than the employed-aide median and less than an agency rate; every caregiver on this site lists an hourly rate on their profile, and the hiring guide covers taxes and overtime.
