Care, without the complexity.
Finding care often means hours of searching, posting, and following up — only to start over again the next time you need help. Lokal was created to simplify that process by offering thoughtful, ongoing support instead of one-off solutions.
Here’s how it works.
01.
Join
Families apply to become members of Lokal. This helps us understand your household and ensure we’re able to provide the level of support Lokal is known for.
02.
Request Care Anytime
Once active, members can request care whenever it comes up — whether it’s planned support or something time-sensitive. One message to the Lokal team starts the process.
03.
Get Matched
We review availability and introduce caregivers who align with your family’s needs, schedule, and preferences. Families interview and hire caregivers directly.
Lokal provides curated introductions — not placements or guarantees.
What to expect
We prioritize thoughtful matching over speed, while keeping communication clear and responsive.
Most care requests are acknowledged within 24 hours
Introductions are typically shared within 3–5 business days, depending on the request
Time-sensitive needs are handled as availability allows
Because care quality matters, we don’t rush introductions or guarantee immediate availability
Is Lokal right for you?
Lokal works best for families who:
Want reliable, ongoing care support
Value time saved and reduced mental load
Prefer thoughtful introductions over endless searching
Appreciate clear communication and realistic expectations
Lokal may not be the best fit for families seeking one-time, transactional solutions or guaranteed last-minute care.
Applications are reviewed personally, and memberships are offered on a rolling basis.
Lokal provides curated introductions to independent caregivers. Families interview and hire caregivers directly.
