Nanny Flat, Elder Cottage

Many elderly or disabled individuals feel comfortable in their own home but need someone in close proximity for meal preparation, yard care, or for housecleaning.  A backyard home can offer a perfect compliment to an aging-in-place senior who still enjoys the comforts of his/her own home and surroundings or simply wants to preserve the family home for celebratory gatherings,  yet would like the benefit of a helping hand when necessary.

Or consider how a single parent or young working families would benefit from having access to an on-site nanny or child care professional, which could minimize the everyday juggling of children for transport when adults have irregular work schedules.
