What is tendercare's mission?

To transform caregiving into tender loving care by empowering families with smart tools and trusted support.

Why was tendercare created?

When Shauna Sweeney’s father was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s, she hit every roadblock families face: missed bills, confusing legal forms, medical crises, and endless Google searches. She built tendercare to give families one place to stay organized, know what to do next, and get real help — making family caregiving simpler and more human.

Is my information secure?

We use bank-level encryption, secure infrastructure, and strict access controls to protect your data. Every piece of information is encrypted, and we maintain formal privacy agreements with all our technology providers. Tendercare is built with a privacy-first design, ensuring your family's information stays private and under your control. We maintain rigorous security standards and work only with partners who meet our strict privacy and security requirements. (Read More)
