Live-In Care

“Support and Comfort in Your Own Home”

What Live-In Care Means

Live-in Care means having a fully trained Care Expert living with you in your home to provide round-the-clock support, companionship, and reassurance. It is a safe and flexible alternative to a care home, giving you or your loved one the comfort of staying in familiar surroundings while receiving tailored care that meets individual needs.

Types of Live-In Care We Provide

Alternative to a Care Home

If you’re struggling to look after a loved one and worried they’ll need to move into a care home, it’s good to know there are other options. Live-in Care is often a much better fit, because it enables your loved one to stay in the place they love best: their own home.

With Live-in Care, your loved one enjoys genuine 1-to-1 care from a Care Expert who understands their needs and supports them to continue their usual routine. This could be long-term, if they have complex care needs, or short-term, for instance after surgery. Most importantly, it gives your loved one a real say in how they live a fulfilling life.

Live-In Care vs a Care Home

Live-In Care

- Continuing to enjoy the comforts of home, where things are familiar.

- Keeping your routine and not needing to change your current lifestyle.

- Enjoying genuine 1-to-1 support.

- Living days independently.

- Enjoying the company of your pets.

Care Home

- Move into a new communal setting; familiar surroundings are replaced.

- Daily life follows the care home’s timetable rather than your existing habits.

- Staff time is divided across many residents.

- Limited independent and more restrictions

- Often times pets are not allowed.

Our Care Experts are not only highly trained but also carefully matched to each person’s needs and interests. This ensures your loved one has both professional care and companionship from someone who fits naturally into their daily life.

Live-in Care

Your loved one deserves to stay at home, surrounded by comfort, memories, and familiarity. Live-in Care makes this possible, with a dedicated care assistant living alongside them to provide tailored support.

From personal care and medication to cooking, cleaning, companionship, and even pet care, our Live-in Care is designed around your loved one’s unique needs and preferences. There are no rigid quotas—just the right level of support, delivered with compassion.

Why choose Live-in Care?

  • Stay in the comfort of home rather than moving to residential care

  • 1-to-1 personalised support from a trained care assistant

  • Independence and choice: your loved one stays in control of their daily life

  • Flexible care that adapts as needs change

  • Peace of mind knowing everything from meals to medication is taken care of

  • Genuine companionship and continuity of care

Complex Care Support

Our experienced carers can also support with more complex needs, including dementia, diabetes, mobility challenges, and continence care, always with dignity and respect.

Costs

Live-in Care is tailored to each individual, so costs depend on the type and level of support required. We’ll provide a free, no-obligation assessment and a clear, personalised quote.

Live-in Care for Couples

No couple should have to live apart just because one partner needs extra support. Sadly, many care homes cannot accommodate couples, meaning people who’ve shared their lives are forced to separate at the very time they need each other most.

Our Live-in Care for Couples service is designed to keep loved ones together, at home, where they belong. Whether it’s your parents, grandparents, or close relatives, we’ll make sure they receive the care they need—without losing the life they’ve built together.

How it works

A dedicated Live-in Care Expert provides round-the-clock support in the couple’s home, helping with:

  • Personal care and medical support

  • Housekeeping, cooking, and shopping

  • Mobility and daily routines

  • Companionship, reassurance, and encouragement

When one partner needs specialised care—perhaps due to dementia, reduced mobility, or a long-term condition—the carer ensures they get the right support while the other partner receives a break from the pressures of caring.

Why couples choose live-in care

  • Stay together – remain at home, side by side, surrounded by memories

  • Flexible support – tailored to the unique needs of each partner

  • Better value – often more affordable than two places in a residential home

  • Emotional wellbeing – maintain independence, dignity, and connection

  • Peace of mind – continuous care with warmth, skill, and compassion

With live-in care, your loved ones don’t just stay safe and supported—they keep the comfort of home and the joy of being together.

Short-Term Respite Care

Sometimes we all need a little extra support. If your loved one is recovering from an illness, injury, or surgery, or if you as a primary carer need a well-earned break, our Short-Term Respite Care is here to help. It is fully personalised, flexible, and designed to provide comfort, safety, and peace of mind at home.

Respite care that adapts to your needs

Short-Term Respite Care can last anywhere from a few days to a few months, depending on what is needed.

  • Perhaps your loved one is coming out of hospital and needs help with recovery at home.

  • Perhaps you are planning a holiday and want reassurance that your family member is in safe hands while you are away.

  • Or maybe you simply need a temporary break to recharge, knowing your loved one is being cared for with warmth and professionalism.

Whatever the reason, our Live-in Care Experts are trained to step in seamlessly, making sure care continues without disruption.

How it works

A fully trained Live-in Care Expert will move into your loved one’s home for the duration of their care.

During the day, they can help with:

  • Personal care, such as bathing and dressing

  • Freshly prepared meals and hydration support

  • Medication reminders and assistance

  • Arranging or accompanying to medical appointments

  • Gentle exercise or rehabilitation support

  • Companionship and social activities

The level of support is completely tailored to your loved one’s needs and wishes.
