In-Home Caregiver / CNA - $15.50 to $20/hr and $1,100 Hire Bonus!!

Our Story

Blue Water Homecare began with a nurse who couldn’t look away.

Jennifer Prescott, RN, MSN, CDP, spent 20+ years as a hospice nurse and healthcare leader. Again and again, she saw the same painful gap. Seniors wanted to stay in the homes they loved. But once their needs grew beyond basic companionship, families struggled to find caregivers who were truly prepared, and those caregivers rarely got the support they needed.

Jennifer knew there had to be a better way.

She set out to build a homecare company that brought together compassionate caregivers, experienced leadership, strong clinical oversight, and an unwavering commitment to quality. That vision became Blue Water Homecare.

From the start, Jennifer believed something simple: you can’t take great care of others unless someone is taking care of you. At Blue Water, that’s how we treat our caregivers. We look out for one another, and we’re there for each other day and night. We celebrate your growth and back you up when the job gets hard. When you join Blue Water, you’re not just filling a shift. You’re joining a family.

Today, we carry that mission forward every day. We provide dependable, personalized care to the seniors we serve, and we’ve built a workplace where caregivers feel valued, supported, and empowered to grow.

One client. One home.
At Blue Water Homecare, you won't rush between patients. You'll work one-on-one with a senior in their own home, get to know them before your first shift, and have a registered nurse a phone call away 24/7. We're hiring caregivers and CNAs across Austin, Williamson County, Lake Travis and Hays County — full-time, part-time, and short visits that fit around school or another job.

 What you'll do 

• Help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and oral, hair, and skin care. 

• Assist with toileting and incontinence care. 

• Help with transfers, walking, and walkers or wheelchairs, following the care plan. 

• Remind and assist with self-administered medications, within your role. 

• Support prescribed exercises. 

• Prepare meals and help with feeding when needed. 

• Light housekeeping, laundry, and companionship.

• Notice changes in your client's health and report them to our RN team.

What you'll earn: 

• $15.50–$20 per hour, based on certification, experience, and shifts.

• $1,100 hire bonus for full-time caregivers.

• Biweekly pay with direct deposit.

• Time-and-a-half paid on holidays. 

• Referral bonus: $500.00 for every caregiver you bring on.
