Meet our founder

Ralph Sijl

Ralph leads Age Well Care with a simple belief: home is best when care is steady and human. He and his family moved to the Central Coast in 2020 and are active in the community.

Born in 1981, married since 22, and father of five, family is the blueprint for how we serve. Dependable, Present, and Kind.

Community not just care

We support the region’s caregiver network. Ralph serves on the Central Coast Commission for Senior Citizens and collaborates with the Coast Caregiver Resource Center, a Cottage Health program that provides free or low‑cost support to family caregivers across Santa Barbara, Ventura, and San Luis Obispo counties.
