All Nationalities Welcome!
 A Unique Opportunity For Immigration!

In Canada  there is recognition that within Canada  there is a labor market need for" Live-in Caregivers"

It is also recognized that generally there are  not  sufficient Canadians or Permanent Residents available to fill these positions. In response to this, the Live In Caregiver program was established.

A live in caregiver is someone who provides continuous, full-time, unsupervised care of children, the elderly or the disabled in a private household. A mandatory component of the program is that the caregiver must Live-In the employer’s home.

Employers must demonstrate the need for a caregiver to live in the home to the officials at Human Resources Department Canada (HRDC) Once it is determined that the employer has demonstrated the need for a Live In Caregiver, they endorse  a contract  so  the  employer may bring a foreign worker.   

There is no shortage of workers for in-home care giving positions on a live-out basis, but to find one to live in the employers home that is a Permanent Resident is difficult.
