What Makes Kedah Placements Different
In our Alor Setar office, elderly care accounts for the majority of placement enquiries — far more than in our Penang or Puchong branches. Kedah's multi-generational household structure means that when families contact us, they are usually seeking a helper who can support an ageing parent or grandparent with daily personal care: morning routines, mobility assistance, meal preparation, medication reminders, and companionship.
We screen for this specifically. A helper who is technically capable in a kitchen but has never worked with an elderly person requiring physical care is not the right match for a Kedah household making this kind of placement. We will tell you that clearly, rather than proceed with a placement that is likely to fail.
Drive times across Kedah are longer than urban states. A family in Jitra is about 45 minutes from Alor Setar; Kulim is 70 minutes in the other direction. Many of our Kedah clients conduct the consultation entirely by phone or WhatsApp and only visit the office for document signing. We accommodate this willingly — the geography of Kedah is a real constraint, and we do not ask families to make unnecessary trips.
Driving Directions to Our Alor Setar Office
From Alor Setar town centre, take Jalan Putra (the main trunk road running north-south). Turn into Taman Sri Tandop — Jalan Lencong Barat is within the estate. Our office is at No 132, ground floor (Tingkat Bawah). From the north (Jitra direction), take the Alor Setar exit off the North-South Expressway and follow signs for Taman Sri Tandop.
For the most accurate routing, use the Google Maps link or Waze.
Frequently Asked Questions — Alor Setar

No. Initial consultations and much of the process can be handled by phone, WhatsApp, or email. Many of our Kedah clients are from Sungai Petani or Kulim and rarely need to visit the office. Documents can be couriered. We ask clients to come in only when signatures on originals are required.
