Key Features
Meet the founder
Published with parental consent.
Hi, I’m Vic, a 24-year-old student, caregiver and the founder of Bringing Care. Coming from two immigrant parents, I had the opportunity to learn three languages fluently: Spanish, English and French. From a young age, I always had the desire to help others.
I’ve spent most of my teen and early-adult years caring for others. I’ve been a caregiver for teens with disabilities and for elders, and before that I worked as an early childhood and special needs educator, including a year at a Montessori school in Spain.
A few years ago, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. Living with a chronic illness showed me the other side of care: what it’s like to need help, to feel vulnerable asking for it, and to wonder if the person who shows up will really understand. Today, I still work as a caregiver while managing my own health, so I live both sides every day. Bringing Care is built from that place.
Why I built this
I became a caregiver to help people, but instead, I watched families suffer while waiting on a system that wasn't coming. I was tired of an industry that traps caregivers in low wages with zero control over their schedules.
I built Bringing Care to change that. We offer seamless support at the click of a button for families, and real independence for the caregivers who power it.
What caregiving leaders are saying

Caregiving leader, McMaster University & Canadian Centre for Caregiving Excellence
“A national crisis of care is here in Canada and now is the time to meet that challenge. Bringing Care is a simple, community-based solution for everyone's care needs from birth to end of life. Whether you can offer care or you need care, this one-stop-shop is the user-friendly and affordable solution we all need.”
At McMaster University, Donna is the co-founder and co-director of the Family Engagement in Research Program at the CanChild Centre for Childhood-onset Disability Research and the facilitator of Caregiving Essentials for the Department of Continuing Education.

Support Bringing Care
I am building Bringing Care independently to bring transparent, accessible home care to Montreal families. Your donation directly funds software development, caregiver verification, and the upcoming launch. Help us change caregiving for the better.
The Care Fund
Care shouldn't depend on what you can afford.
The Care Fund is built right into the Bringing Care app. It helps cover home care visits booked through Bringing Care for people who can't pay the full rate. It's funded by our community, one donation at a time, so more people can get the help they need at home.
