Esther Dowding

Granny NANNIES home health care agency has independent franchised offices in Florida, Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Ohio and South Carolina.

Granny NANNIES home health agency was founded in 1990 by Rob and Kirsten Hodgson in Central Florida as the result of a very personal, family situation - the need to find quality, trustworthy, reliable and affordable care for Rob's aging grandmother, Esther Dowding, in her own Central Florida home.

The plight was similar to others across the country: an elderly parent with working adult children, who are parents themselves; a great-grandparent with a zest for life and a disabling physical condition; a senior with an undeniable need for help with the activities of everyday living yet with a determined desire to stay in her own home, with loved ones to whom a nursing home was "out of the question."

What's a family to do? Rob and Kirsten Hodgson moved to Florida from New Hampshire to care for Esther. With their own married life to manage, however, Rob and Kirsten knew they needed help in caring for Esther and began a search to find competent, caring, affordable assistance. Their search turned up very little. In fact, there was a relative void in Central Florida in the type of home care services they sought. Clearly, a resource was needed. Being "go-getters," Rob and Kirsten solved the problem for themselves and hundreds of other families by establishing Granny NANNIES of North America to provide specialized home care services for the elderly.

And the rest is history! Since 1990, Granny NANNIES has grown into a successful licensed nursing agency with numerous company owned and owner/operated-franchised locations serving thousands of the community's elderly and individuals with special needs. The company has stayed true to its original mission as "a home health care agency committed to providing the highest quality of compassionate care to its clients who are seeking independent living in the comfort of their own homes or other suitable environment." Esther - who credits her longevity and well being to Granny NANNIES - is still being lovingly cared for in the family's home by her family and original "nanny" and best friend, Louise. Says her grandson Rob, giving credit where it's due, "She's the reason we started it all!"
