Caregiver (CHHA) | $20-$22/hr | Bergen County, NJ

Job Description

Job Description

You deserve to work somewhere that treats you the way you treat your clients.

At Lumara Home Care, we built this agency around one belief: exceptional care only happens when caregivers feel genuinely respected, well-supported, and proud of where they work. If you've worked in home care before, you already know what's missing out there. We're building something different.

We're a boutique, private-pay agency serving Bergen County families who want attentive, relationship-driven care for their loved ones. Small enough to know your name. Serious enough to pay you what you're worth.

What you'll do

You'll be matched to clients whose needs align with your strengths and schedule. Every day looks a little different, but the constants are:

• Personal care: bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility support
• Companionship — real conversation, shared activities, being present
• Meal preparation, light housekeeping, and medication reminders
• Transportation to appointments and errands
• Communicating updates directly to family members and our care coordinator — because families deserve to know their person is in good hands

What makes Lumara different

We don't pile on 30 bullet points and call it culture. Here's what's actually true:

• You'll be heard. Our care coordinator is reachable — not just "on-call."
• You'll be matched thoughtfully. We don't drop you into a random case. We talk to you first.
• You'll be recognized. We notice reliability, warmth, and going the extra mile — and we say so.
• You'll have stable hours. We aim to build consistent client relationships, not scramble-and-fill scheduling.

Compensation & benefits

• $20–$22/hr based on experience and case type
• Bi-Weekly direct deposit
• Paid orientation and ongoing training
• Holiday premium pay
• Paid for time driving between clients
• Mileage reimbursement for client transportation
• Early wage access (through Tapcheck)

What we're looking for

• Active NJ CHHA or HHA certification
• Reliable transportation
• Ability to communicate clearly with clients, families, and our team
• Someone who genuinely cares — and shows it in how they work

Lumara Home Care is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate the diversity of our caregiving team and the communities we serve.
