“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Grá Home Care and Laura. From the very first meeting, it was clear that caring for seniors isn’t just a job for her; it’s a calling. Laura cared for our elderly parents with incredible compassion, patience, and dignity. She treated them as if they were members of her own family, taking the time to get to know their routines, preferences, and personalities. Knowing they were in such capable and caring hands gave our family tremendous peace of mind.”

Meet the Founder
Laura O’Donovan, Founder & Caregiver
Laura started her career in a residential nursing home in Ireland, caring for people living with many forms of dementia. That experience shaped her path. She trained in elderly care, fall prevention, Alzheimer’s care, and end-of-life support, then moved into the emergency department of a university hospital where she cared for people from all walks of life.
She later worked in the funeral home industry, supporting grieving families through their hardest days. After moving to the US and working with dementia and overnight home care clients, Laura knew it was time to build what she’d always envisioned: a home care company rooted in real experience and genuine love for the work.
