Live-in care that puts families first

We've built a better way to find and manage live-in care. No agency fees. No complicated contracts. Just quality care from people who genuinely care.

Rigorously Verified

Every carer passes enhanced DBS checks, reference verification, identity confirmation, and skills assessment. We accept fewer than 5% of applicants.

24/7 Support

Our dedicated support line is available around the clock. Day or night, emergencies or questions—help is always just one call away.

Transparent Pricing

One weekly rate covers everything. No joining fees, no exit fees, no weekend or bank holiday surcharges. What you see is what you pay.

You Choose Your Carer

Review profiles, watch introduction videos, have video calls. You pick the carer who feels right for your family—not the other way around.

Flexible Arrangements

Long-term placements or short-term respite. Adjust as needs change. No long contracts—just care that adapts to your situation.

Safety Tools Built In

Emergency location sharing, incident reporting, and direct escalation to emergency services. Modern safety tools for complete peace of mind.

Care arranged in days, not weeks

We've simplified the process so you can focus on what matters—finding the right person to care for your loved one.

The care home alternative that keeps life normal

9 out of 10 elderly people would prefer to be cared for in their own home. Live-in care makes that possible—one dedicated carer, familiar surroundings, and the independence to live life on their own terms.

Stay at home

Remain in familiar surroundings with cherished possessions, pets, and memories.

One-to-one attention

A dedicated carer focused entirely on one person's needs, not shared between many.

Companionship

More than just care—genuine human connection and someone to share the day with.

Better outcomes

Research shows home care leads to fewer falls, less anxiety, and better quality of life.

Mum was terrified of going into a care home. With live-in care, she's stayed in the house she's lived in for 40 years, with her cat, her garden, and now a wonderful carer who feels like family.
