About Us

Trafalgar Personnel Limited was founded by Marna Martin in 1979 and has been successfully meeting the child, elder and homeware needs of Canadian families ever since. Although our Services have been greatly reduced since to Covid pandemic hit in March 2020, we continue to place caregivers in Full and Permanent Part Time child, elder care and Housekeeping positions on an Employer / Employee basis. Unfortunately we are only able to assist with Short Term placements occasionally as local caregivers are in short supply.

Our employees and families are interviewed and screened in order to ensure that a match is compatible. We guarantee that all offers of employment are discussed thoroughly with each employer and are reviewed to ensure they meet provincial employment standards legislation.

We expect both employers and their caregivers to treat each other fairly and with respect, and to maintain open communication lines so that they can work together in finding solutions to any problems that may arise. We are here to provide guidance and support, whenever needed.
