I highly recommend choosing Sakhi4life as your partner in caring for your elderly parents. My experience with the group has truly been rewarding and satisfying. They are courteous, respectful, prompt and meticulous in the care that they provide. Truly providing an unmet need for elders in Chennai.

We are an elderly couple living in Chennai alone, for the past two decades. Due to advancing age, we felt that at this point in life we need support to handle emergencies

Our son who lives in the US seems to have heard our thoughts by telepathy! He immediately organised Sakhi4 life to take care of us in Chennai. That was in first week of March 20.We least imagined that were heading for a countrywide lockdown by end March.

The lockdown happened. “Stay home messages”, searing heat, and no vehicles on roads. What then do elders do? We turned to our new friends Sakhi4life. By a mere phone call they delivered all our groceries at our doorstep. They went to our Bank and brought us cash and chequebooks. They immediately organised weekly cleaning and disinfecting our home. All this was done during the most crucial phase of the lockdown.

They recharged our mobiles online, paid our broadband bills online and Electricity bills for May online. Even now they continue to do these functions. By their actions during lockdown, they cleared all our doubts.

Last, but not least, they strictly adhered to timings specified by us elders.

Yes. Sakhi indeed for life.

I feel happiest that my parents can call you for help when they need it. Your honest communication and quick responses to any queries makes us trust you. Your services bring some peace-of-mind, especially during this time of a worldwide crisis and severe travel restrictions that keep families apart.

I am an NRI based in Dubai and had the good fortune of engaging with Sakhi4Life to provide counselling and support for my parents based in Chennai. Both my parents have medical conditions and one of my parents has restrictive movement, so we were referred by someone to engage with Sakhi4Life.
It has been slightly over six months since I am interacting with Sakhi4Life and I cannot explain my gratitude and appreciation enough in words. They take care of my parents as their own, they are always at the beck and call, they always show empathy and concern to any queries from my parents. Sakhi4Life is always accessible 24/7 and always provide their best support – be it referral for emergency advice, active support through a professional medical team, and organising all logistics for my parents to go to the clinic for personal medical advice.
They are always in touch with me whenever an emergency situation arises, thereby giving me all the moral support and professional medical advice. I cannot explain enough how personal and satisfying this means to me and my family who live abroad and unable to attend to my parents’ needs personally, so Sakhi4Life comes as a saviour in all respects.
Sakhi4Life is not doing this for a living, this is a social service as I came to figure out from my experience. I strongly recommend NRIs like me to seek the support of Sakhi4Life to take care of your senior family members – with Sakhi4Life you are guaranteed you have the utmost personal guidance and best medical support.

A special mention goes to Ms Suchint and Ms Pooja, who jointly manage the organization, and particular thanks to Mr Rajamani who is an active team member.

I feel assured that my mother is able to get help as needed and does not have to manage challenges on her own especially in emergencies. I can always reach out if I have questions or need assistance taking care of my mother from a distance. The responsiveness to the needs of family members and seniors makes me trust Sakhi4Life. The Friendly Sakhi is what I like best about the experience.

To anyone considering Sakhi4life, I’d recommend reaching out to them if you need professional help in taking care of the needs of your elderly family members living alone. With their help you can support your family even if you are not with them.

After two and a half months of lockdown, I was now desperate for a haircut. Thankfully, saloons were about to open, but would it be safe? Should I risk spending an hour in an enclosed space with dozens of saloon staff and their customers? Without air-conditioning in the heat of June?

That’s when I remembered Sakhi4Life.

Suchint was simply amazing. She immediately identified the terrace of my building as the safest and most comfortable venue. And identified a professional hair dresser as concerned about hygiene and safety as I am.

The Sakhi executive took care of everything. Picked up the hair dresser, brought him over, supervised the disinfection of the implements, and stayed till the job was done to my satisfaction. All in the safe and convenient outdoor environment of my own terrace!

Thank you Sakhi.

I have used the services of Sakhi4Life for a few months before lockdown started for my mother who lives on the other side of Chennai in her own apartment with nurses and staff. My sister and myself share Mum’s care but with distances and a busy lifestyle and responsibilities towards our own families, we were unable to spend as much time with her as we would have liked. Enter Sakhi4Life.
I felt from the first meeting with the company that mum would be in very good hands. I liked the friendliness of the staff and a genuine desire to give company to my mum, to joke and make her laugh and contribute to conversation.
My mum loves to go out and meet new people; it was lovely how Sakhi4Life arranged for her to meet other members despite her physical condition – mum has had multiple mini strokes and is in palliative care – but Sakhi4Life managed all this to make her life as normal as possible for her. I would like to tell anyone who is looking out for care for their loved ones to definitely meet with Sakhi4Life care counsellors – they are wonderful!

My parents are in very good hands and worry about their care and comfort is alleviated both for them and for us. Sakhi4Life understands Seniors and what they need in terms of maximum helpfulness and minimum disturbance. My father who is very hard to please and get used to new services, really likes the Sakhi team and how considerate they are when dealing with Seniors. To others considering Sakhi, my advice is – do not postpone your decision to care for our Seniors. Sakhi4Life is well worth the expense and the service they provide is indispensable.

I first contacted Sakhi in a critical situation when my parents were affected by COVID. Mrs. Suchint immediately arranged for home care (with necessary protection) and made sure my parents were taken care of. She also arranged for healthy meals home delivered. Later I contacted them for a full-time caretaker. Sakhi arranged for video interviews to make sure we are comfortable with the choice of the provider. Suchint was very transparent and honest in all her communications and she is always available to answer questions. We were finally able to pick a good caretaker for my parents.

The best part is that Sakhi continues working with the family as well as the caretaker to make sure any issues are taken care of. We have worked with several agencies in the past. But I have never experienced such professionalism. They also help with all aspects of elderly care and go above and beyond to ensure the customers are satisfied. I wish Sakhi and their team great success. They are truly making a change in the lives of the elderly.

The Instant trust and bonding makes us feel happiest. We felt that there is someone who can be dependable and trustworthy, understands the unique needs of the elderly and provide the necessary assistance on-demand and at our home. The calm and composed manner in which Suchint handled the situation inspires trust. They take care of our needs in a prompt and professional manner Overall, it has been a pleasant experience. Sakkhi4Life is always available, quick in offering solutions, and best of all giving us the flexibility in choosing which services we want, without any pressure or inconvenience. It felt like a good friend with whom we could easily connect and share our concerns, and have the confidence that everything will be taken care of for our mother and to her liking. Becoming old and being somewhat dependent on others is inevitable in everyone’s life. The choice is to continue living in your own home and environment with dignity but be self-dependent or leave everything to go to an old-age home, be among strangers but everything taken care of. Being independent and in your own home, and having someone who can assist only when needed is best of both worlds for the elderly. That is what we really like about Sakkhi4Life.Genuine care and quality service for an affordable price.

With our parents thousands of miles away in Chennai, surviving this pandemic has been a rollercoaster ride for us. We were looking home care support, post covid hospitalization and Sakhi4Life was recommended to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner! Not only did the team have answers to all our questions, but also provided additional insights on aspects we had not even thought about yet. They had flexible care plans and their experience really shone through in all our interactions. Above all, with us being in the US, the timezone difference never felt like a barrier and they were always super responsive and ready to help. Thank you team Sakhi4Life!
