Dedicated to Quality Care and
Dignified Living
Founded from a family vision, Baobab Care Residence is Arusha’s first dedicated care space, offering dignified, compassionate care.
Our story of Care

Located in the heart of Arusha, Baobab Care Residence was born from a deeply personal journey — one shared by many families. As a busy family, we found ourselves spending enormous amounts of time, energy, and resources trying to ensure our grandmother and mother received the care, dignity, and attention they truly deserved. Like many families, we faced the challenge of balancing work, family life, and the emotional responsibility of elder care.
From this experience, Baobab Care Residence was created — with one clear purpose:
to provide professional, compassionate, and reliable elder care, delivered with respect and heart.
Baobab Care Residence is very close to my heart. Caring for my own family taught me how important it is to have a place where our elders feel safe, respected, and truly at home. With the love and support of my family, I was inspired to create a warm, dignified care space for Arusha—one built on compassion, trust, and the belief that every stage of life deserves gentle care and kindness.
