Today, we celebrate together with all the women around the world: International Women’s Day! A global celebration of the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. Throughout the years, we have stood side-by-side and are proud to fight for political representation, access to greater opportunities, fair pay, working rights, and gender equality. We are fortunate to live in a time and place where incredible opportunities are in abundance.
This day also provides an opportunity to recognize and honor the invaluable contributions of women in the Home Care Industry who serve their clients with compassion and dedication. Many of these women work tirelessly to provide quality services for those in need. From providing support to individuals with disabilities and the elderly to helping families in times of crisis, these dedicated care providers are an essential part of our society. On this International Women’s Day, we honor their hard work and dedication to improving the lives of others through compassionate care and services. Through their commitment to service, in-home care providers make a meaningful difference in the lives of those they serve – an invaluable contribution that should not go unrecognized. Let us celebrate these women on this special day!
Nest & Care is led by a strong team of resilient, smart, and hard-working women, and all of us have gathered special messages that we want to share with the women of home care today.

To our dearest female care providers, you don’t just work, but you also inspire! You are the best example of passion and enthusiasm, and the world needs more working women like you to empower others and lead the way to success. Happy Women’s Day!

Healthcare Recruitment Officer • Intake Specialist
Message to our Job Applicants & Newly Hired Staff:
Women have been marginalized and underrepresented in the caregiving industry, but with the shift in societal attitudes, more and more women are taking the lead in providing care for those who need it most. There are now more opportunities for women to pursue careers in caregiving, which include roles such as personal aides, home health aides, and nursing assistants. Women who choose to pursue these types of positions often find themselves with better job security and higher wages than those who take on traditionally male-dominated roles.
In order to further empower women in the caregiving sector, it is important for employers to provide job seekers with the skills and education they need to succeed. Here at Nest & Care, we help women advance in their careers by providing them access to training and courses. We think female representation is important, and we are proud to work side-by-side with strong women.
Women empowering women! That is our goal, and we genuinely hope to inspire the women around us, as we are inspired by their strength, resilience, and commitment to making this world a better place. A Happy International Women’s Day from all of us at Nest & Care!
