Who we are

What is Sakhi4Life?

As parents grow older, it is often extremely challenging to manage caring for them. Especially when most don’t want to leave the homes they’ve built over the years, or the way of life they are used to. Distance and time constraints leave us feeling stressed out and fearful for their wellbeing. We founded Sakhi4Life to plug this anxious gap by offering Support, Care and Companionship for Aging Parents with the same kind of respect and effort that you would put in.

How we work

Our Sakhi Counsellors are just one call away for every need.

We match every senior with a Sakhi Counsellor according to personality, skillset and language. It could be as small as ordering a meal on Swiggy or a car on Uber to fall-proofing their house to managing their property or arranging a celebration with friends or relatives. We believe every senior deserves  a true Sakhi4Life!

How we work older couple
A trusted companion

Why should you trust us?

Having looked after our own elderly parents, grandparents, and parents-in-law ourselves, we have had the same doubts when it came to trusting outsiders. That’s why we run extensive background checks before appointing a counsellor. We ensure that we, the three founders, are available 24/7 to both you and them to address any gap in service. So far, we’ve not had a single complaint.

Companionship
Companionship beyond care

We’re there for you. No matter what.

Most people assume that the main problem faced by the elderly is medical in nature. But there’s a deadlier disease called loneliness, one that kills slowly and painfully. Sakhi4Life offers a highly effective remedy for this. They’re called companions. Our Sakhi Companions regularly spend time reading to elders, listening to them reminisce about their life and times, taking them out to watch plays, musical programs, or perhaps even a trip to the beach. In some cases, this also gives their family some relief and time to themselves.

When lockdown was announced, we turned to our new friends Sakhi4life. With a mere phone call, they delivered all our groceries at our doorstep. They brought us cash and chequebooks from the bank. They recharged our mobiles, paid our broadband bills and Electricity bills online. Yes. Sakhi indeed for life.

After two and a half months of lockdown, I was desperate for a haircut. It wasn’t safe for me to go to a salon. That’s when I remembered Sakhi4Life. Picked up the hair dresser, brought him over, supervised disinfection of implements, & stayed till the job was done.

My mum has had multiple mini strokes and is in palliative care – but Sakhi manages to make life as normal as possible for her. She loves to go out and meet new people; it was lovely how Sakhi arranged for her to meet other members despite her physical condition.

A strong immune system is the best antidote

Our bodies are supposed to be a low-maintenance machine with a natural intelligence that protects and heals us, moment to moment. This natural defense mechanism is the immune system. And the least we can do is maintain a few habits that help it do its work efficiently.
