Verified caregivers in Trelawny
Trelawny splits in two. Along the coast around Falmouth the rhythm is set by the cruise port and the hotels, and inland towards Clark's Town it is as rural as anywhere in Jamaica. Which side of the parish your family home sits on changes what is realistic.
The standard, in every parish
Every caregiver placed in Trelawny is verified before the family meets her: ID checked in person, current JCF police certificate, two references telephoned by our team, interview, and a signed declaration.
Elder and patient-care files are also reviewed by our Registered Nurse before a caregiver is presented. CareLink places caregivers; we do not deliver nursing or medical services ourselves.
How verification works, step by stepArranging care in Trelawny from abroad
- You interview her yourself on WhatsApp video, after reading her written profile. Nothing is confirmed until you are comfortable.
- A local family member or neighbour can meet her first if you would like one to. It is not a requirement.
- Under Diaspora Care we check in every week with your relative and her caregiver, and send you a short written update.
- Overseas clients pay in US dollars by card or PayPal. The Jamaican dollar figure stays the fee of record.
What families in Trelawny usually ask for
Elder care for a parent in the family home is the steadiest request, and inland it is usually live-in. Clark's Town and Wakefield are far enough from anywhere that daily travel is the thing most likely to end a placement, and a room in the house removes the problem.
Falmouth and Duncans households ask more often for live-out housekeepers and daily helpers, sometimes for a family home and sometimes for a property that is rented out part of the year and needs keeping between guests.
Childcare in Trelawny tends to follow hotel shifts on the coastal side, with early starts and some weekend cover. Inland it looks more conventional, with after-school hours and school-run help being the common ask.

Start with Trelawny selectedQuestions from Trelawny families
- Can you place a live-in caregiver inland, towards Clark's Town?
- Yes, and inland is where live-in makes most sense in this parish. We search Trelawny and the bordering districts, because a caregiver with roots nearby will sustain a rural live-in role in a way that someone brought in from Montego Bay generally will not.
- My mother is in Falmouth and I am in Canada. How often would I hear anything?
- On the Diaspora Care plan, every week: a check-in call with your mother and with her caregiver, and a short written update to you afterwards. Without the plan you would hear from us when something needs your decision, which for many families is enough.
- We need someone for a family property in Duncans, not a person. Is that something you place?
- Yes, as a housekeeping role on set days. It is a recurring part-time placement at J$15,000, and the brief states exactly what is covered, including whether she buys anything for the house and the per-trip cap on a float if she does.
