Can't hurt to look. It takes a bit to find the right caregiver that is a good fit. That takes a bit.
Easy to schedule, responsive, acted quickly when we needed to change timing of services and were flexible.
I used Home Sweet Home services recently to drop in on and support my Mother-in-Law in the Hull area. I found [name removed], the owner, to be a great communicator, caring, and very helpful. Home Sweet Home provided clear communication, prompt service, and excellent support at a competitive price. I highly recommend them! As an added bonus, they visit the Hull Massachusetts area, which many services won’t visit since it’s far from the major highways.

Granite, shipping, railroad, coffee, a navy base, the American Revolution — there’s quite a bit of history packed into one small city along the South Shore of Massachusetts. A suburb just south of Boston, Quincy boasts an ongoing revitalization of its downtown area that’s centered around the city’s seemingly bottomless well of historic sites but also features a range of new shops, restaurants, art galleries, and residential developments.
About three centuries before the very first Dunkin’ Donuts opened in 1950 near downtown, the settlement now known as Quincy was incorporated by Boston for a short time, then became Braintree (now a town to the south), and eventually separated in 1792 to be renamed after Colonel John Quincy, whose granddaughter was Abigail Adams. That family tree, along with Quincy native and American statesman John Hancock, would come to define the city’s culture, as Abigail and her husband John Adams — lawyer, Founding Father, diplomat, and second U.S. president — would name their son John Quincy, who served as the new nation’s sixth president. Today, the Hackcock-Adams Common in downtown Quincy encompasses many of the city’s oldest and most iconic landmarks, including City Hall, United First Parish Church, and Hancock Cemetery, plus statues of both John Hancock and John Adams with plenty of greenspace and benches. Just north of downtown is Adams National Historic Park, where visitors can learn the family’s extensive story by touring the land and homes they once occupied.
Quincy’s coastal location made it prime real estate for shipyards along the bay, which anchored the city’s economy throughout the 1900s. On the west end of town, the Quincy Quarries Reservation is now a popular park and rock-climbing spot but was once the source of the city’s thriving granite industry and led to the Granite Railway, one of the country’s first railroads. Fishing is a popular pastime at Quincy’s many marinas and seaside parks, and residents can catch a glimpse of the Boston skyline from Squantum Point Park or walk the paved promenade along Wollaston Beach in North Quincy.
Transportation
As part of the Boston metro area, Quincy has several public transportation services. The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) has four subway stops in Quincy on the Red Line, one of which is Quincy Center, which is also a transit hub for MBTA bus routes. Also stopping at Quincy Center, the MBTA’s Old Colony Lines are a commuter rail service connecting Greater Boston to surrounding cities. For riders 65 and older, the MBTA offers discounted rates with a Senior CharlieCard, as well as a shared, door-to-door paratransit program called The RIDE.
