About Respite Edmonton
A local private respite service built around the belief that families deserve respite that is safe, warm, and truly reliable.
Our Mission
To give families in Edmonton and surrounding communities access to trusted, screened respite workers — so parents can rest, recharge, and know their loved ones are in good hands. We exist because every family deserves a break without worry.
What We Stand For
These values guide every decision we make — from hiring to matching to the way we answer the phone.
Trust
Every family deserves to feel confident that their loved one is in safe, capable hands. We earn that trust through rigorous screening, clear communication, and consistent care.
Respect
We honour the dignity, preferences, and individuality of every person we support. Care is never one-size-fits-all — it is shaped around the person and their family.
Continuity
Relationships matter. We work to place the same worker with your family whenever possible, so care feels familiar, comfortable, and reliable.
Community
We believe in building connections — between families, workers, and the broader Edmonton community of support. No one should feel alone in their care journey.
Why We Exist
Respite Edmonton was founded by people who have walked the same path as the families we serve. We understand the exhaustion that comes with being a full-time caregiver, the anxiety of leaving your child or adult family member with someone new, and the frustration of long waitlists and unreliable support. Our goal is simple: make respite care easier to access, safer to trust, and warmer in every interaction.
