Care built around your family.
Locally owned and operated in Little Rock.
Welcome
We are glad you found us. Choosing help for someone you love is a tender decision, and we want the first step to feel simple.
Charlotte's Home Care is a family-owned, non-medical home care agency here in Little Rock, founded by Charlotte Butler-Rice, who brings more than 25 years of experience in home health care and supportive services. She began providing care independently in 2011, and by 2016 her clientele had grown enough to formalize the agency she still runs today. We support seniors who want to stay independent, adults living with disabilities, veterans and their families, and individuals recovering from an illness, injury, or surgery. Our caregivers help with the everyday things that make home feel manageable again, from a morning routine to a warm meal to a ride to the doctor.
As a family-owned agency, we keep it personal.You’ll see familiar faces in your home and have a dedicated point of contact for your family. That’s the heart of what we do, and it’s how we’ll continue to serve our community as we grow.
“When you lead with love, serve with integrity, and put God first, lives are transformed. Home care isn’t just what I do. It’s who I am, and it’s my honor to serve families throughout Central Arkansas.”
Charlotte Butler-Rice, Founder

Vacations and family trips
Planning a vacation or a trip to see family? One of our caregivers can travel with your loved one and help with the everyday things along the way. That leaves them free to enjoy the trip and be part of the moments your family will talk about for years.
The difference
Home care is unusual among services, because quality depends almost entirely on one thing: whether a familiar face keeps coming back. Everything else in the brochure stops mattering when it does not.
Charlotte owns the agency and runs it. That is not a marketing position, it is the operating model.
We know the hospitals, the neighborhoods, and the drive between Benton and Cabot on a Friday afternoon.
Hours change, recovery speeds up, a hospital stay happens. We adjust without a month of paperwork.
Errands, the store, the salon and a walk around the block. Staying home should not mean staying indoors.
How it starts
Four steps, no obligation at any point, and nothing begins until you have read and agreed the plan in writing.
One message or one form. No pressure, no obligation to book anything, and no cost for the conversation.
We sit down together, meet your loved one, and look at how the day really runs rather than how a form describes it.
Tasks, timings and preferences, in plain language. You read it and approve it before anyone starts.
You meet the caregiver before the first working visit, and we stay in touch to see how it is settling in.
When to call
Most people contact us the week something changes. If any of this sounds like your household, it is a good time to talk, and it is usually easier before a crisis than after one.
Mornings have become the hard partShe is managing the rest of the day, but washing and dressing now take everything she has.
Coming home from hospitalHe should not be on his own for a few weeks, and the discharge date came sooner than anyone expected.
You are running on emptyYou have been the caregiver for months, you are not sleeping, and you have stopped seeing your own friends.
You live out of stateYou want eyes on the house a few days a week, and someone who will tell you honestly what they see.
An adult child needs daily supportSteady, respectful help at home for an adult living with a disability, built around what they can already do.
The house has gone quietAfter a spouse dies, the days lose their shape. Regular company does more than people expect.
Paying for care
Home care is priced by the hour, and the honest answer is that it depends on how much help is needed and how often. Here is what moves the number, so nothing on your bill is a surprise.
We quote you plainly after the home visit, in writing, before any care starts. Most families begin with fewer hours than they expect and add to it once everyone has settled. If home care is not the right fit for your situation, we will tell you that too.

Sheridan, in Grant County, lies to the south, beyond the area drawn. Every community we serve is listed as text below, grouped by county.

Good questions
These are the questions families actually put to us first. If yours is not here, ask it. We would rather answer honestly than have you guess.
Non-medical home care is help with daily living rather than medical treatment. A caregiver assists with bathing, dressing, meals, laundry, errands, reminders and company. It is different from home health, which is clinical care ordered by a doctor and delivered by nurses or therapists. Many families use one, some use both, and the two work fine alongside each other.
Home care is practical and personal support with everyday life. Home health is clinical: wound care, injections, physical therapy, nursing assessments. We provide home care only. If your loved one needs clinical care we will say so rather than stretching what we do.
Because we are local and family-owned. Your family has one point of contact who knows your situation, you see a familiar caregiver week to week, and decisions are made here in Little Rock, the same day.
The signs are usually quiet ones. Mail piling up, the same shirt worn several days running, food going out of date in the fridge, missed appointments, or a fall that got brushed off. If you have started worrying between visits, that is usually the moment to have a conversation.
In some circumstances, yes. Arkansas runs programs that let an eligible person direct their own care and choose who provides it, which can include a family member. Eligibility rules are specific and they change, so we will point you to the right state office rather than guess at your situation.
It depends on the hours you need and where you live. Tell us what you are looking for and we will give you a real answer, including if the honest answer is that we cannot cover it yet.
Life moves. Contact us and we will rearrange. We will explain any notice period plainly in your service agreement so there is nothing buried in small print.
Our promise
Five things we commit to in writing, every time, for every family.
In their words
Charlotte and Antonio were a God-given lifesaver when my dad, Bernie Henderson, needed special care. They professionally, and, most of all, lovingly, cared for my dad. In turn, Dad loved Antonio, not just as a caregiver but as a friend who became like family. Charlotte and Antonio were responsive when we needed extra help, for which we were so thankful. I never worried when Charlotte or Antonio were with my dad. I honestly do not know what we would have done without them. I am forever grateful.
My husband, John, dearly loved Antonio and Charlotte. Antonio was completely attentive to John by keeping him from falling, keeping him and his surroundings clean and doing the heavy lifting that was required while being completely professional at all times. I believe John felt better with having a man take care of him. Antonio and Charlotte became good friends with us in our time of need. I highly recommend Charlotte's Home Care if you have a loved one in need of good care.
Charlotte’s Home Care provided exceptional care for my Mom for two years while she lived in her apartment. Charlotte was there day and night, and her caregivers were compassionate, dependable, and attentive. I had complete trust in them, which gave me great peace of mind.
I am forever grateful to Charlotte and her team for the loving care they provided and for giving me more precious time with my Mom. I highly recommend Charlotte’s Home Care to anyone looking for trustworthy and dedicated caregivers.
