At Carriage Hill Assisted Living, it’s our passion to provide a home for you and your loved ones. Our New Hampshire assisted living facility is family-owned, and intentionally small in order to provide individualized care and attention to each resident. The relationships that we cultivate with our residents continue to be a source of inspiration and fulfillment for us.
On your journey to finding assisted living in NH, reviews and testimonials from seniors and their families are an invaluable resource. We welcome you to take a look at what some of our residents and their families have shared about their experiences at Carriage Hill.
Great Facility And Wonderful Care!
When our mother came to the realization that she could no longer live alone in our family home, it was important to us that we find a place for her to live that she would be well cared for and have a good quality of life. After meeting with [name removed], we chose Carriage Hill because we felt confident that the services they provided would meet all of Mom’s needs and we were not disappointed! Mom loved the attention she received from the staff as well as her sunny room that was very well maintained. She enjoyed time at the puzzle table, loved the food especially the breakfast that [name removed] prepared “just for her” and was always a willing participant in the daily social activities and weekly van rides for lunch, ice cream and shopping. I highly recommend Carriage Hill and urge you to call Sara and schedule a tour today!

Hi Sara,
Finding a bit of time now to turn to that testimonial (inspired a bit by our afternoon with Mom)… Here it is: “Almost five months into calling Carriage Hill home and Mom’s gratitude and ours has only grown. We feel so fortunate. In the 9 months before finding Carriage Hill, Mom went from living independently to a prolonged recovery and rehabilitation following a leg amputation. She transitioned from the hospital into two different rehabilitation placements and ultimately to a full-time nursing facility where concerns about her morale and functioning led us to have Mom try returning to her apartment with some additional caretaking support. But within just two months, she was requiring more and more independent living support and was feeling increasingly fearful about being alone. “From our first visit to Carriage Hill, our own fears about whether we could find a place that had the support Mom needed and one that felt like home to her were put to rest. The front door opens into warm surroundings that are more than matched by owner Sara Nadeau’s welcoming and caring approach. Our first impression that Mom would be in really good hands with Sara and her dedicated staff has been completely reinforced by the reality of these last several months. “Mom has talked about feeling respected and well-cared for but she is not necessarily one to go so far as to say she feels loved. We see it and feel it, though. And we deeply appreciate that Sara and the staff are direct, transparent and ‘can do’ about finding solutions when there are bumps in the road. There are still lots of times when we wish we could turn back the clock and have the Mom who was always strong and independent and who did so much to care for us. But this new time in her life at Carriage Hill has her feeling loved and safe and as close to being at home as we could ever have imagined. “Sara, this may be wayyy too long to be useful and, certainly, our feelings won’t be hurt at all if this –or some excerpted version –just doesn’t seem to work into what you envision for this project. Use or don’t as you see fit. With appreciation for all you and your team are doing to help Mom live the best life she can.

The Right Place for My Family Member
A Vietnam Vet, my brother developed Parkinson’s Disease so slowly that neither he nor I knew what it was for years and it went undiagnosed by his medical community. When it came to the point where it was no longer safe for him to live alone, we discovered Carriage Hill, just two miles away. A large home-like atmosphere with private rooms and large living and gathering rooms for activities and visiting, Carriage Hill, with 24 residents was ideal for him. The staff was caring, patient, and helpful with his needs as his health declined. They accepted his growing confusion and mild dementia from the disease with understanding and compassion and adjusted his daily needs accordingly and appropriately. The nurses and staff were in communication with me regularly about him. Attuned to his changing needs, they were able to bring in the hospice level of care he needed when it was time so he did not have to relocate! I am so thankful for the love and care they gave to Bob at the end of his life.

Small And Personable
My mother-in-law lived at Carriage Hill for more than 3 years. The staff were so good to her. From the administration to the nursing staff, from the aides to the kitchen staff -all were attentive to her individual needs. And they were also sensitive to the needs of the family. They made her feel welcome and part of the Carriage Hill family. They provided entertainment and a variety of activities appropriate for her age. They communicated with us all the way until her last breath. I would recommend Carriage Hill to anyone looking for a safe, compassionate “place for mom.”

The Personal Touch Of “Family” Oriented Care
When my mother entered her 90’s, and needed assisted living care, my family rushed to what was reputedly “the best” and one of the most expensive options available in our state. A demanding woman who led a sophisticated life of travel and entertaining, she could be a hand-full when she was in the mood. To our surprise, our first option for her care was not a good fit, lonely, corporate, and cold, we made the decision to move her to Carriage Hill in Madbury, NH. A smaller, and more personalized community, we were simply astounded to see she experienced more direct and warm social contact in her first 24 hours at Carriage Hill than she had experienced in a full year at the larger, “name brand” corporate facility. So if you are looking for a warm, loving, family-type atmosphere, combined with first class staff and care, where everyone is on a first name basis, put a tour of Carriage Hill on your list for your loved one. My family could not recommend them more highly.

A good place for Dad!
We have been very pleased with the care my Dad has received from Carriage Hill thus far. During our family’s quest to find a safe home for him, any questions or concerns we had were answered thoroughly to our satisfaction by the administrators and/or staff at Carriage Hill. This facility is designed with its residents in mind, is well maintained and is very clean. Residents have the opportunity to participate in many different activities throughout each month both at the facility and remotely. The staff are friendly and always treat residents with kindness and respect. This facility has received many awards for excellence. I would highly recommend them for your loved one’s care.

I recommend Carriage Hill wholeheartedly. It is a very well run business, and they understand dementia. They are helping us work through this difficult disease and all of its ups and downs and difficulties.

Great facility!
The facility is beautiful, my parents are happy there, and the staff is great! It’s comforting to know that my parents are being taken care of so well. I enjoy visiting my parents there; it’s like a home-away-from-home.

Mom is doing great!
My mom has been living at Carriage Hill for about 2 years. I visit her frequently and really enjoy seeing the care that she receives and the amenities Carriage Hill has to offer. Not only is the staff wonderful and patient, but there are a variety of activities available each week to engage my mom. Some activities are inside the facility, while others are field trips to local restaurants and events. While mom doesn’t partake in everything, I do feel there is something for everyone. I also notice the care that my mom receives, and it is comforting to my entire family to know that she is in a facility that is paying attention to her needs.

Carriage Hill – Madbury, NH
My father has been living at Carriage Hill for more than one year and he absolutely loves it! He feels loved and cared for by the staff. Knowing this is of great comfort to our family. We are happy that he is enjoying his life at Carriage Hill.

A wonderful place for our Mom
We used a referral service while searching for a residence for Mom. We received a list of 6 facilities to investigate and Carriage Hill rose to the top of the list almost immediately. We were immediately impressed with the layout and cleanliness of the facility and the fact that it is a small business operated by a sister and brother team who are onsite almost every day. The staff is very pleasant, friendly, and cheerful and we were greeted very warmly. After a short time on their wait list Mom moved in about 3 weeks ago, and she is thriving there. They offer a variety of activities daily and have in house service providers for pedicures, hair styling, dental hygiene, hearing aid cleaning, and more that Mom is able to take advantage of. Our family feels very good about this decision because we know she is being very well cared for, engaged socially, and offered many opportunities to go on outings to interesting area attractions. We highly recommend Carriage Hill Assisted Living.

The perfect place for my family member
When looking for a place for my family member it was very important that it had the feeling of home. We went to several places but fell in love with Carriage Hill Assisted Living. From the moment we arrived at the facility we felt at home. The décor is welcoming and invites you in from the moment you walk through the doors. The administrator, [name removed], is a warm compassionate person who treats the residents like family. The entire staff, from the nurses to the kitchen helpers, attend to the needs of each resident. If the need ever arises that I need a place, I have already directed my family that my wish is to be at Carriage Hill Assisted Living.
– Ruth Webb (Spouse or Partner of Resident)
It’s not a Nursing Home!
You walk in and immediately feel comfortable. I know my mom is getting the care she needs but she’s not just a Room number or anonymous patient here. Very capable staff and very friendly. I feel secure knowing she’s at Carriage Hill.
