A care support apparatus includes a lateral pair of leg links held by a main body. The leg links include first links provided with first wheels at respective one ends of the first links, and second links provided with second wheels at respective one ends of the second links and rotatably coupled to the first links. The second links are rotated to allow the first wheels to approach or leave the second wheels, respectively, to change the height of a main body from a ground surface to support a care receiver.
