We can arrange an initial visit to come and discuss your individual requirements and to introduce ourselves. Putting a face to the name really helps to reassure our clients. We understand that it can be difficult adjusting to the idea of having someone come into your home and we want to ensure the process is as smooth and stress free as possible. We guarantee a specific time for each and every visit and the same helper will visit you each time. We do not provide personal care and therefore our rates are significantly lower than the cost of having a carer visit. Our carefully picked helpers all have experience in Social Care. They are fully trained, insured and hold enhanced DBS checks.
