Why a Housekeeper Carer could be right for you
A Housekeeper Carer manages household tasks whilst providing personal support. A Housekeeper Carer gives you the helping hand you need, when and where you need it, so you are able to focus on what is important to you. Housekeeper Carers can come to you as either part-time or full-time and either live-in or live-out, depending on you and your needs. Our professional Housekeeper Carers will work with you, and if necessary, your families, to support you in your routines. As with any domestic housekeeper, our Housekeeper Carers are completely flexible to you and your needs, whether you require more caring support than housekeeping or vice versa, your care is completely up to you.
Domestic Housekeeper Carers are here to ensure you are able to live as independently as possible in your home, for as long as possible. Dealing with an illness or change in lifestyle can be very challenging, familiar surroundings provide the best environment for recovery and adjustment. That's why our Housekeeper Carers are the best available, highly trained and experienced in caring and housekeeping, so you continue to be most comfortable at home.
A Professional Housekeeper Carer is a perfect hybrid between having a Housekeeper to care for your home and a Carer to care for you. Your level of support is entirely tailored to your needs. Whether you need someone twice weekly for laundry and errands, or support with appointments, our Housekeeper Carers provide practical help and companionship.
If you have more complex care needs, such as Alzheimer’s, familiar surroundings will be of great benefit, so staying in your home for as long as possible is a necessity. Our Housekeeper Carer Services are highly trained and are able to provide specialised care and a deeper understanding of these issues so can support you through the changes that come with these conditions.
Is a Housekeeper Carer the best option for me?
A housekeeper carer is the ideal combination between having a housekeeper to care for your home and a carer to care for you. A housekeeper carer also takes the pressure off your loved ones, who while they are happy to help when and where they can, are most likely not equipped with the skills and experience that a Housekeeper Carer can offer.
Flexible to your needs
All our professional Housekeeper Carers are available to you as and when you require. Whether you're looking for someone to visit twice a week to help with laundry and errands, or someone to live in with you full-time. Whatever your care needs, our professional Housekeeper Carers are available to support you. We also understand that your care needs may change over time. You might start with part-time support and later need full-time live-in care - our carers can adapt alongside your evolving needs.
Bespoke one-to-one care
Having your own housekeeper carer provides you with personalised, one-to-one care that is flexible to your requirements that you can't receive elsewhere. Professional Housekeeper Carers also ensure you can remain within your home, your community and maintain your schedule for as long as you desire. Maintaining your independence at home for as long as you choose.
Your domestic Housekeeper Carer can assist you with almost everything such as:

It's completely personal to you and your needs so you are able to focus on what’s really important to you. You free up the time to continue to be an active member within your community and stay engaged in your life.
Emotional support along with physical
A housekeeper carer is an excellent source of emotional support. While staying in your home for as long as possible is the goal, this can come with feelings of loneliness and isolation from your peers and community. Professional Housekeeper Carers keep you in your home, in a familiar environment for as long as possible, near your friends and loved ones and provide you with the ability to continue to see them as and when you wish.
Having someone that has a deeper understanding of what you are going through than maybe your loved ones are able to provide is essential to your emotional wellbeing. If you are having a bad day and aren’t up to doing anything much, your Housekeeper Carer can take care of it all. You will be matched with someone who has common interests and hobbies so you are spending your time with someone who will become a beloved friend.
Expert and specialised care
If you're living with conditions such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease, a Housekeeper Carer is a great option for you. Housekeeper Carers can be specially trained and have hands on experience in these areas so they can help guide you through the changes you are experiencing. They will also have a deeper understanding than your loved ones of how to respond to challenging situations that may arise. They are also able to guide you through the changes that happen within yourself, provide you with reassurance and an understanding shoulder to lean on. As the conditions develop later on you may need to consider a live in carer who can specialise in caring for your needs.
