Meet Our Founder, Nini Heaven

Pioneering Compassionate, Generational Home Care Across Canada

Introduction

Meet Nini Heaven, a dedicated social work and mental health professional with over 12 years of experience providing direct support to individuals and families across urban centers and remote communities in Canada. Her passion for holistic, inclusive care has taken her into homes, hospitals, isolation hubs, transitional housing, and long-term care settings—always with a deep commitment to meeting people where they are. That same commitment inspired the founding of Canadian Home Caregivers, a non-medical home care agency built on dignity, trust, and person-centered values.

The Journey to Canadian Home Caregivers

Nini’s story is one of lived experience, not just education or titles. She began her journey in caregiving by walking alongside people during some of the most challenging moments of their lives—supporting seniors with memory loss, adults facing mental health crises, youth in transition, and individuals with complex disabilities.

Her approach has always been grounded in real connection. As she progressed through roles in mental health, community services, and residential care, she developed a deeper understanding of what compassionate care truly looks like: consistent, customized, and rooted in respect. That vision became the foundation of Canadian Home Caregivers, where every service is guided by a desire to empower people to live with independence and dignity at home.

Training, Leadership & Team Excellence

From day one, Nini knew that building a strong care agency meant building a strong team. She has personally led training programs and mentorship initiatives to ensure every caregiver is equipped with not just technical skills—but also the emotional intelligence, empathy, and communication tools necessary to support a wide range of client needs.

Her leadership style is hands-on and heart-forward. She supports her staff with real-time coaching, clear standards, and a focus on trauma-informed, culturally responsive care. Nini also ensures that her team stays current with evolving best practices in home care, mental health support, and client safety—creating an environment where caregivers feel empowered, capable, and proud of the work they do.

A Personalized, Generational Approach to Care

Under Nini’s guidance, Canadian Home Caregivers has developed a care model that supports individuals through every life stage—from children with developmental needs to older adults navigating chronic illness, memory decline, or end-of-life transitions.

Each care plan is thoughtfully crafted in collaboration with clients and families, taking into account not only health needs, but emotional and social well-being. Services may include personal care, companionship, hospital discharge support, community integration, respite for families, and specialized care for cognitive or physical challenges.

No two people are the same, and Nini ensures that this belief is reflected in every interaction—adapting support to honor the unique background, preferences, and goals of each person receiving care.

Community Engagement & Advocacy

Throughout her career, Nini has worked closely with healthcare professionals, social workers, nonprofit organizations, and community leaders to ensure that care reaches those who need it most. She has been a vocal advocate for equitable access to services, particularly in under-resourced or rural areas, and actively works to close the gap between community needs and care delivery.

In addition to leading direct services, she supports educational outreach and community engagement—raising awareness about aging in place, disability inclusion, and mental wellness at home. These initiatives have helped position Canadian Home Caregivers as not just a service provider, but a trusted community partner.

Innovation with Purpose

As the landscape of caregiving continues to shift, Nini ensures that Canadian Home Caregivers remains adaptable and forward-thinking. The agency incorporates evidence-based practices and modern care strategies to improve outcomes and streamline support—without ever compromising the human touch that defines their work.

From digital care tracking to structured training programs, Nini blends practical tools with heartfelt leadership, creating a care environment that’s both effective and deeply personal.

Conclusion

Today, Nini Heaven and the Canadian Home Caregivers team stand as a trusted pillar of support for families across Alberta. Through their compassionate, inclusive, and personalized approach to home care, they offer more than just services—they offer peace of mind, genuine connection, and a commitment to helping people live fully and comfortably in the homes they love.
