We understand how important it is to have reliable and caring support for your loved ones
When daily visits aren’t enough, our live-in care service allows you to be well looked after in familiar surroundings. One of our trusted, vetted carers lives with you, or your family member, to provide daily one-to-one care.

Live-in care can be a cost-effective alternative to care homes. You or your loved one receives high-quality care from our carefully selected carers and all within your own home. Some of the benefits include:
A sit-in carer provides temporary care, typically for a few hours, to allow the primary caregiver a break or to provide companionship and supervision. Their duties often include:
Personal Care
Assisting with basic personal hygiene if needed (e.g., helping to use the bathroom).
Ensuring the individual is comfortable and their immediate needs are met.
Companionship
Engaging in conversation and providing emotional support.
Participating in activities or hobbies the individual enjoys.
Offering company to reduce feelings of loneliness.
Supervision and Safety
Ensuring the individual remains safe while the primary caregiver is away.
Monitoring mobility to prevent falls or injuries.
Assisting with basic mobility around the home.
Light Household Support
Preparing light snacks or drinks.
Tidying up immediate areas, if required.
Medication Support
Assisting with medication reminders or administration, if appropriate.
Reporting
Informing the primary caregiver of any significant events, changes, or concerns that occurred during the sitting period
Sit-in carers primarily provide short-term care, focusing on the well-being and safety of the individual while offering peace of mind to the primary caregiver.
