domiciliary care
Domiciliary care is provided for those who need a little extra help but may not require full-time support, and can help to keep people in their homes for longer
Our Domiciliary Care service is ideal for individuals who require assistance with daily tasks but wish to continue living independently in their own homes. From help with washing and dressing to medication reminders, meal preparation, and companionship, our carers are trained to offer personalised support for each individual’s needs.
Our aim is to help individuals maintain their autonomy while providing the necessary care for health, safety, and well-being. Our carers treat each person with the respect and dignity they deserve, offering a friendly, supportive environment that feels like home. Whether you need a few hours of support each week or regular assistance, we ensure the care plan is flexible to your requirements.
We’re able to help with a wide range of needs and can put care in place within 48 hours.
LIVE-IN CARE
Live-in care involves a dedicated, full-time, carer moving into the home to support with care needs as well as domestic tasks.
For those who need round-the-clock care, our Live-In Care service offers a dedicated carer to live with you or your loved one in the comfort of your own home. This 24-hour service is ideal for individuals who require constant attention due to age-related conditions, disabilities, or serious health concerns.
Having a live-in carer means that your loved one is never alone and receives continuous assistance with personal care, health management, and daily activities. Our live-in carers are trained to provide companionship as well as practical care, ensuring your loved one feels secure and supported. This service is also a great alternative to moving into residential care, as it allows for personal care in a familiar environment, with a high level of support tailored to the individual’s needs.

We leave nothing to chance. We treat your family’s care with the diligence we’d treat our own.
We uphold the highest standards in home care and supported living. From rigorous background checks to real-world assessments, we ensure every carer is compassionate, capable, and trustworthy.
Our guiding principle? Would we trust this person to care for our own family? With us, you can be confident you're in safe hands.
DBS background check
We conduct thorough background checks to ensure our carers and support workers are fully vetted, giving you complete peace of mind.
SITUATIONAL JUDGEMENT
Our carers and support staff undergo real-life scenario assessments, ensuring they can make the right decisions in any situation—whether providing personal care at home or supporting independent living.
Character assessment
We select individuals who demonstrate kindness, respect, and empathy—qualities that bring comfort and joy to those receiving care.
OVERNIGHT CARE
Our Overnight Care service ensures your loved one receives the support they need throughout the night.
Sometimes, additional support is needed during the night, particularly for individuals who may require help with getting up, toileting, or managing their medication. Our Overnight Care service provides a carer to stay overnight, offering assistance as needed throughout the night to ensure comfort, safety, and peace of mind.
Overnight care can be tailored to meet the specific needs of each person, such as helping with settling into bed, assisting with night-time routines, and responding to emergency needs. This service is ideal for those who feel insecure or unsafe at night, as it provides the extra reassurance that someone is there to help when needed, without the need to move into a care home.

Types of professional overnight care
SLEEPING NIGHT CARE
In this arrangement, a caregiver will sleep in your loved one’s home. This can be helpful for people who are anxious if they’re left alone during the night, but don’t need a great deal of physical support.
The carer will be there for at least eight hours and will sleep in their own room but will be available to help your loved one if they need assistance during the night. Normally, a carer working a “sleeping night” would not expect to have to get up any more than twice. If your loved one needs more frequent attention than this, the shift would be classed as a “waking night”.
Waking night care
In this home-care option, the carer is actually on duty in your loved one’s home for a shift of around 10 hours, although different shift lengths may be arranged. They will not need a room or a bed, as they’ll not be sleeping.
If your loved one needs help several times during the night, this could be the best option for them. For example, they may require assistance in changing their position at regular intervals to prevent the development of pressure sores, or they might need medication administered at set times.
For older people needing dementia care, waking care might be necessary to ensure that they do not come to any harm during the night. People living with dementia are sometimes unable to interpret the signs that it’s nighttime and may get up and try to leave the house. In-home night care for them would need to be from a carer who was alert to this possibility.
A sitting service
This might be needed if you or another family member provides elderly care for your loved one but need a break during the night. A carer would visit to stay with the older person for a fixed length of time, such as two or four hours, while the primary carer has a break.
THE BENEFITS OF COMPANIONSHIP CARE
Overnight care offers significant benefits for individuals who require assistance during the night, providing peace of mind for both the individual and their family. With a dedicated carer present, your loved one receives the support they need with tasks like getting in and out of bed, managing medication, or handling overnight health concerns.
This continuous care reduces the risk of accidents and ensures safety throughout the night. Additionally, overnight care offers emotional reassurance, as the individual has someone nearby in case of emergencies or to provide comfort during the night. For family members, it allows them to rest, knowing that their loved one is well taken care of, ultimately improving the overall quality of life for everyone involved.
