Taking the time to care

Who I Am

A Carer You Can Trust

With over 20 years of experience in the care industry I have a passion for delivering quality care for people in their own homes.

I started my career working in a local care home, and after 10 years there, I moved into working in the community, caring for people in their own homes. I genuinely love this job, and cannot imagine doing anything else! Meeting new people and learning about their lives is one of the most interesting things I have ever done.

I find great satisfaction in making peoples lives a little bit easier and brighter. Even the smallest things count, like sewing a button back onto a favourite top or recreating their favourite recipe from childhood, I strive to make my clients happy.

I can offer a totally bespoke service to you including:

Personal Care, Domestic Support, Home cooked meals, Medication support, Running errands, Companionship, Pet care, Shopping assistance, Medical appointment support and End of Life Support.

Feel better in the comfort of your own home with an individualized service that you can trust.

Experienced and Supportive

I understand that not one care plan fits all. Daily services can include anything from meal preparation, personal hygiene, cleaning the home, and supervision of daily tasks. I will take the time to get to know you and develop an individualized care plan that fits your specific needs.

Companionship is key to a trusted relationship with your caregiver. I not only strive to help you with everyday tasks but want to develop a caring relationship with you. I provide one-on-one attention and care that cannot compare in other settings.

Testimonials

Mrs R

Katie consistently goes above and beyond in all of her caring duties. She is conscientious, efficient and kind, always sorting out any problems with common sense, humour and determination. The most important thing to say, though, is that Dad adores her and I am convinced that he would not have flourished in the past two years without Katie. My sisters and I are immensely grateful that she is such a major part of Dads life.

Mrs L

Katie is very caring and will go above and beyond to help her clients. We were lucky to have her look after our Mum in her final few years. She always gave good advice to help us through the days. You get a full 5 star service. We couldn't ask for more.

Mrs C

Katie has been caring for my father-in-law for the past 20 months. she is kind, compassionate, extremely reliable, hard working, practical but, most importantly, great company for him during her visits. She is excellent at communicating and will always contact us about anything we need to know which we find very reassuring, living a distance away. I can recommend her wholeheartedly.

Mrs P

Katie has cared for my Father since shortly after my Mother died. Although, at the time she was working as a carer for a care provider, she has always been the shining star amongst the carers who visited on a weekly basis. Apart from being hard working and reliable - she is blessed with both common sense and good communication skills with both my Father and the family. She constantly updates us when anything needs our attention, or if she has any concerns for my father. Katie's housekeeping skills are impeccable. Above all, Katie really cares - she spends time engaging with her client and my Father absolutely adores her. I would recommend Katie wholeheartedly.
