Overview of With a Little Help
With a Little Help is a private home care and hospice agency based at 2021 Minor Ave E Suite A in Seattle’s Eastlake neighborhood, serving the Puget Sound region. Founded in 1995 and now operated by sole owner and administrator Paul Sivesind following a merger with Sequoia In-Home Care, the agency provides in-home personal care, hospice support, and respite care exclusively on a private-pay basis. Medicare and Medicaid are not accepted; the agency is not CMS-certified by the Washington Department of Health.
The agency’s stated service model centers on personalized care plans developed after in-home assessment, with emphasis on independence and comfort in place. Caregivers assist with activities of daily living (bathing, dressing, medication management, meals), transportation to appointments and social outings, and companionship aimed at reducing isolation and supporting cognitive engagement. Specialized offerings include memory loss care and Parkinson’s disease care. Respite care (temporary, short-term in-home care for family caregivers) is available alongside hourly and 24-hour live-in arrangements. Hospice support is offered for end-of-life care. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; specific after-hours emergency protocols are not detailed on the agency’s public profile.
The agency states that all caregivers undergo background checks before employment and emphasizes clear communication with clients and families. The agency reports an A+ BBB rating in Seattle and received The Seattle Times Best in the Pacific Northwest award in 2025, along with an Employer of Choice award for Best of Home Care in 2023. These recognitions indicate industry visibility, though they do not constitute state licensing or regulatory certification.
The agency is located 2.9 miles from Seattle’s city center and 0.76 miles from Fred Hutch Cancer Center-Sloan Clinic 1. Walk score for the location is 80 (very walkable). Regulatory oversight, licensing history, inspection records, and formal credentialing frameworks specific to this agency are not disclosed in public materials; no government-conducted inspection data is available for verification.
Families should ask about caregiver training and qualifications for the specific care type needed (memory loss, Parkinson’s, hospice), background checks, and emergency and after-hours availability.
