Caring for the elderly

A clean home,
a familiar face.

Nestico brings gentle, dependable housekeeping to seniors — weekly cleaning, laundry, and deep cleans, done unhurried and with care. The same background-checked cleaner comes every visit.

  • Police-vetted cleaners
  • Same cleaner each visit
  • Auckland, launching 2026
How it works

Three steps to a tidier home

No apps to install, no accounts to manage. A phone call is all it takes.

1

Tell us what's needed

Call or fill in a short form with the address, the tasks, and how often — weekly or fortnightly.

2

We match a cleaner

A vetted, background-checked contractor local to the area is matched and introduced before the first visit.

3

The same face, every time

Your cleaner returns for every visit. Payment is handled automatically — no cash, no invoices to chase.

Trust & safety

Trusted hands, familiar faces

Because our clients are often elderly and living alone, every contractor goes through the same process before they're matched with a single client.

  • Ministry of Justice background check

    Criminal record checks completed before any contractor is approved.

  • Identity verified

    Government ID confirmed and kept on file.

  • References checked

    Prior work history and references reviewed before onboarding.

  • A real person to call

    Every client has a direct line to our team, not a chatbot, if something isn't right.

A note on what vetting means.

A background check lowers risk — it isn't a guarantee. We're upfront about this with every client, and we make it easy to reach us directly if you ever have a concern about a visit.

Nestico is the matching service, not the employer — contractors work independently, insured and vetted to our standard.

Frequently asked

Questions families ask us

Who are the cleaners?

Independent contractors who've passed a Ministry of Justice background check, ID verification, and reference check before they're ever matched with a client.

Can we request the same person every visit?

Yes — once matched, your cleaner returns for every future visit unless you ask us to change it.

How do we pay?

Payment is collected automatically after each visit — no cash handling and no invoices to chase.

What if we're not happy with a visit?

Call us directly. We'll follow up with the contractor and, if needed, arrange a different match — no forms, no waiting on email.

Which areas do you cover?

We're launching in Auckland first, with plans to expand as demand grows.

For contractors

Bring your own cleaning business, we bring the clients

  • Steady, local work

    Matched with clients in your area, with the option to build repeat relationships.

  • You set your availability

    You choose which jobs to accept — Nestico doesn't set your schedule.

  • Paid automatically

    Nestico collects from the client and pays you out, minus our matching fee — no chasing invoices.

  • Independent contractor

    You work for yourself and manage your own tax and ACC — Nestico is the matching service, not your employer.
