Westside care decisions, with a personal guide
Santa Monica families want thoughtful help—not a national call center. We’ll walk with you through assisted living, memory care, and board and care options nearby.
Santa Monica families often want two things at once: a loved one close to the Westside life they know, and guidance that feels personal instead of transactional. We understand both.
Sequoia is based in the South Bay, and we also help families across greater Los Angeles County—including Santa Monica—when they want a calm, local advisor who will listen first and recommend a focused set of communities.
What we keep in view for Santa Monica families
Visit logistics matter on the Westside. So do care quality, community culture, and whether a monthly rate includes what your family thinks it includes.
We help you define a realistic search area—Santa Monica and nearby communities that still make weekday visits possible—before anyone spends a Saturday touring the wrong places.
Where we can help
We’ll help you choose the right care path, then find communities that match it.
- Assisted living — Help with daily activities while keeping as much independence and social life as possible.
- Memory care — Specialized support and a more secure setting when memory needs change safety and daily routines.
- Board & care — A smaller, home-like setting with more personal attention and fewer residents.
Other areas we serve
If your family’s map stretches beyond Santa Monica, we can help there too.
