How Matching Works

A deeply personal match.
Guided by you.

Hestia gives families total choice and control. Our intuitive platform allows you to effortlessly filter by availability, shared interests, background, and local village to find the ideal match for your loved one. With full profile visibility and 60-second video bios, you can explore, connect, and book with complete confidence—on your own terms.

01 / Share Your Routines

Our brief intake questionnaire captures your loved one's personality, background, and favorite hobbies, alongside the specific respite windows your family needs.

02 / Instant Local Match

Smart search tailored to your family.

Filter instantly by village, proximity, and shared passions—from Cambridge scholars to active retirees. Effortlessly discover companions who live nearby and truly share your family's values.

03 / Direct Connection & Booking

Meet, message, and book with confidence.

Explore detailed profiles complete with transparent background checks, past family reviews, and 60-second video bios. Reach out directly to introduce yourself, ask questions, and arrange your first visit seamlessly through the platform.

04 / A Gentle First Visit

Build trust at your own pace.

Schedule an introductory visit directly through the platform to meet in person. Once you and your loved one feel completely comfortable, easily set up a recurring weekly routine with your chosen companion.
