Nurse-led in-home care

You can't be there every morning.
We built an agency close enough to be.

Hourly caregiving in seven ZIP codes across Fort Bend and Harris County — and nowhere else. Nurse-practitioner-led, so every care plan comes with real clinical judgment behind it.

Call or text 713-489-7249

Call now — you'll talk to our care team, not a call center.

Care can begin in 24–48 hours. No long-term contract.
We intentionally keep a small list of clients — low caregiver-to-family ratios — so that we're not juggling schedules to fit you in.

How it starts

Three steps. The first one is just a conversation.

1

Call or text

You talk to Salimah, a nurse practitioner and the agency's owner — not a call center. Free, unhurried, at 713-489-7249.

2

We assess at home

She visits, listens to what's really going on, and builds a care plan around the person — not a package.

3

Care begins

A screened caregiver (plus your named backup) starts showing up on your schedule — usually within 24–48 hours — with every visit logged in the Aaniie Family Portal.

Why families call

Most people don't call because something happened. They call because it almost did.

"She's still sharp. She just shouldn't be alone all day."

Companionship, meals, light housekeeping and a set of eyes on the day — three mornings a week or seven, whatever the week actually needs.

"Dad came home from the hospital and nobody's there at 6am."

Help with bathing, dressing and moving safely through the house during the weeks when one fall would undo the whole recovery.

"I'm in another state and I don't know what's actually happening."

Every visit logged in the Aaniie Family Portal with notes and photos, a short written check-in every week and a fuller summary each month, and one person you can call who knows your mother by name.

The nurse-led difference

Most agencies send a caregiver.
We send a caregiver a nurse
practitioner stands behind.

What we do most is simple: dependable, everyday care — the same hourly help you'd want from any good agency. What's different is who's watching over it. Aescent is owned and run by a family nurse practitioner, and that clinical eye quietly makes the care better at three moments that matter most.

Aescent Private Care provides strictly non-medical Personal Assistance Services, offering everyday support in the home. While our founder's extensive background as a Nurse Practitioner elevates our agency's standards and care planning, our services do not include medical treatment and do not replace the care of a primary physician. We proudly support and coordinate with your loved one's healthcare team, never around them.

What we offer

Personal assistance services

Hourly, in the home, on a schedule you set — from four-hour visits to extended daily coverage.

Two promises

The two things families
tell us they worry about
at three in the morning.

1

You won't keep meeting strangers.

Every family gets a primary caregiver and a named backup who has already met you — introduced at the start, not scrambled for on a Tuesday morning.

And if we can't send either of them, we call you before we send anyone. You decide whether to accept someone new or skip the shift. That call is the promise.

2

You won't have to chase us for answers.

Every visit lands in the Aaniie Family Portal as it happens — clock-in time, the caregiver’s notes, and photos. Wherever in the country you live.

Then every week you get a short written check-in — a few lines on how the week went, or an honest "nothing changed, all steady." Once a month, a fuller summary: hours delivered, what caregivers have noticed, anything that's changed, and what's coming up. Written by the caregiver who was actually there and reviewed by our nurse practitioner — in plain language, without you having to chase it.

What families say

Families trusted Salimah before Aescent existed

Before founding Aescent Private Care, Salimah personally helped families coordinate care for a parent in the Houston area — often from hundreds of miles away. Here's what two of them had to say.

★★★★★

"A caregiver in Mom's home in under 24 hours — from 800 miles away."

Living in Atlanta while trying to arrange urgent care for my mom in Sugar Land was terrifying. I was terrified of locked-in contracts and inconsistent caregivers from hundreds of miles away. Finding Salimah was an absolute lifesaver. Knowing she's a Family Nurse Practitioner gave me immediate peace of mind. She arranged a screened, trustworthy caregiver for my mom's home in under 24 hours and kept me informed every step of the way. She's since founded Aescent Private Care, and if you are managing long-distance caregiving for a parent in Fort Bend or Harris County, I can't recommend her highly enough.

"Care that worked alongside Dad's medical plan — no long-term contract."

Managing my father's post-cancer recovery from NYC was tough. While insurance covered his clinical medical care, it left massive gaps in his day-to-day routine. We needed private-pay, non-medical support in Sugar Land for meal prep, mobility assistance, and daily companionship so he wasn't sitting alone. Salimah stepped in within 24 hours, no long-term contract required. Because she's a Family Nurse Practitioner, the care she arranged worked seamlessly alongside his medical plan, with familiar faces my dad could count on. She now runs Aescent Private Care, and if your family needs supplemental hourly in-home care in the Houston area, she's worth every penny.

Healthcare professionals & advisors

Referring a patient or client?

Discharge planners, care managers, and attorneys refer to Aescent because we're licensed, insured, nurse-practitioner-owned, and reliably staffed — and because we keep you in the loop. Referring takes one call.
