Assisted Living in Austin was started by Stuart and Kathy Dupuy, founders of Mom's Best Friend Nannies, Sitters and Household Staff. With over 15 years of experience providing highly screened, highly trained, superior household staff, the Dupuys felt that Austin was lacking quality senior services. In addition to adding in-home Senior Care to the Mom's Best Friend services, they launched Assisted Living in Austin, a collection of residential care homes in the Austin area that serve the mind, body and spirit. In keeping with the spirit of Mom's Best Friend, Assisted Living in Austin only provides the highest quality caregivers and the most luxurious service.
