Bee on Call, a locally owned concierge business, is celebrating its five‑year anniversary serving the New Braunfels area. Founded by sisters Shana and Deana Bridges, the company began as a response to a personal need: Shana’s mother and grandmother lived two hours away, and she struggled to find reliable help for them.
Family‑focused origins
“I started the business because I have just a heart to help,” Shana Bridges said. The sentiment behind the company remains rooted in family care, especially for older adults. “I think that’s where my heart is,” she added. “There are so many seniors that just need help, and kids are busy or may not live in their area, so I’m very proud and feel blessed to be able to help seniors in our area that need help.”
Services for a wide range of needs
Bee on Call offers a broad menu of concierge services, including grocery shopping, event planning, and personal errands. The company tailors its offerings to several groups:
- Small businesses seeking administrative support
- Special events that require coordination and logistics
- Older adults needing assistance with daily tasks
- Busy professionals looking to reclaim time
- Active families juggling multiple responsibilities
By handling these tasks, Bee on Call aims to free up time for its clients to focus on work, family, and community involvement.
Geographic reach
While the flagship location operates out of New Braunfels, the business also serves nearby Canyon Lake and Seguin. In addition, the Bridges sisters expanded to the Dallas‑Fort Worth metroplex, covering Keller, Southlake, Grapevine, Colleyville, Roanoke, Watauga and North Richland Hills. This dual‑city presence allows the sisters to meet the needs of both Central Texas and North Texas residents.
Impact on the community
Local entrepreneurs and families have praised Bee on Call for its reliability and personal touch. Small‑business owners report that outsourcing routine tasks has allowed them to concentrate on growth and customer service. Parents appreciate the peace of mind that comes from knowing errands are handled efficiently, while seniors and their families value the dignity and independence the service provides.
Community leaders note that businesses like Bee on Call contribute to the local economy by creating jobs and supporting other local enterprises. The company employs a small staff of dedicated professionals who share the Bridges sisters’ commitment to service and faith‑based values.
Looking ahead
As Bee on Call marks its fifth year, the sisters plan to continue expanding their service offerings and deepening their community ties. They hope to add new programs aimed at senior wellness and to partner with local nonprofits that serve vulnerable populations.
“We’re grateful for the support of our neighbors,” Shana said. “Our goal is to keep helping families and seniors thrive in New Braunfels and beyond.”
