Tarun and Kokil Singhal launch Always Best Care to Provide In-Home Support for
Seniors and Families across Williamson County
ROUND ROCK, Texas, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — When Tarun and Kokil Singhal decided to leave careers in technology and build a senior care business, the decision was rooted in an experience they already knew personally: what it feels like when someone you love needs help and your family doesn’t have enough support.
Both Tarun and Kokil helped care for their grandfathers, who experienced limited mobility following strokes. Tarun remembers trying to balance school while his father worked full-time, without having someone they could call for help. Kokil, whose parents live in India, understands the challenge of loving aging parents from thousands of miles away.
Now, after 15 years of calling Round Rock home and raising their family in the community, the couple is turning those experiences into a new local mission with the launch of Always Best Care Senior Services of Round Rock, serving seniors and families in Round Rock, Georgetown, Leander and surrounding Central Texas communities.
The launch comes as Williamson County continues to grow and its population ages. The county’s population reached an estimated 752,827 in 2025, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, while 13.7% of residents are now age 65 or older.
For the Singhals, however, the need for senior care is more than a demographic trend.
“When I was caring for my grandfather, I was trying to balance school while my father worked full time, and we didn’t have someone we could call for help,” said Tarun. “Having someone we trusted who could step in and reassure us that he was safe and well cared for would have made such a huge difference. I didn’t have that option then. Now, we have the opportunity to provide that option for other families.”
For Kokil, the experience of being separated from her own parents has given her a different perspective on what families need from professional caregivers.
“I know what it’s like to love your parents and not be able to be there every day,” Kokil said. “Through our caregivers, we can give families someone who can step in like a son or daughter would, helping with the everyday things while also providing companionship and connection.”
From Technology to a More Personal Mission
The Singhals spent years building careers in technology before deciding to take their experience in a different direction.
Kokil worked as an IT program manager, including with Fortune 100 companies, while Tarun built his career in technology and business. But as they thought about the next chapter of their lives, they began asking a different question: What could they build that would have a meaningful impact on other people?
“What can we do that leaves a positive mark on the world?” Tarun said. “For us, caring for people was the answer.”
Their technology background will still influence how they operate Always Best Care. But Tarun believes technology should support caregivers and families, not replace the human connection at the center of senior care.
“Technology and AI can give us tools to run a better business and support our caregivers, but a computer can’t replace the human connection between a caregiver and the person who is depending on them. At the end of the day, this is still about people taking care of people.”
Building a Business in the Community They Call Home
For the Singhals, opening the business in Round Rock is intentional.
They have spent 15 years living in the community and raising their family here. Now they are investing in the same community as business owners, employers and local care providers.
The couple plans to hire 30 to 50 caregivers during its first year and is building relationships with healthcare providers, senior living communities and veteran support organizations throughout the area.
They also plan to participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s – Williamson County on October 17 and other community initiatives supporting seniors and their families.
“Tarun and Kokil bring the combination of operational experience and genuine empathy that is so important in home care,” said Jake Brown, President and CEO of Always Best Care. “What stands out about their launch in Round Rock is the timing. Williamson County is growing, and they’re stepping in with real urgency to meet the needs of local families. They know how to build and lead a business, but they also understand that success in senior care ultimately comes down to the personal experience you create for families and caregivers.”
