Karuna — Hiring Home Caregivers (Elder, Mom and Baby & Recovery Care)
Location: Harlur, Koramangala Bengaluru | Now Hiring
About the Role
Karuna is a verified, on-demand home caregiving platform serving families across Bengaluru's Sarjapur corridor. We're hiring trained caregivers to support elderly clients and people recovering from surgery or hospitalization — with daily living, mobility, and companionship support.
This is not a clinical/nursing role — no injections, medication administration, or ICU-level care.
What You'll Do
Assist with daily activities: bathing, grooming, toileting, feeding
Support mobility: walking, transfers, assistance getting in/out of bed or chairs
Accompany clients to hospital visits, physical therapy, temple, or other outings
Provide companionship and light monitoring for elderly or recovering clients
Report any change in client condition to the family and Karuna hub coordinator
Who We're Looking For
Minimum qualification: BSc Nursing / GNM / ANM, OR a completed caregiving certification (e.g., through a recognized caregiver training center)
Prior experience in elder care, home nursing, or post-operative care preferred, not mandatory
Compassionate, patient, and comfortable working independently in a client's home
Willingness to complete Karuna's certification training before starting bookings
Training
1-month structured training curriculum (via Karuna's training partners or in-house program) before you're certified to take bookings
Candidates already trained/certified through our partner training centers can be fast-tracked
