Round-the-clock support, without leaving home
When a loved one needs help at any hour, live-in care keeps them safe and settled in their own home. A caregiver is present day and night — a familiar face for the whole day, every day.
When live-in care makes sense
Live-in care suits situations where visiting care is no longer enough but a care home isn't the right answer.
Needs around the clock
Frequent help through the night, or a high risk of falls and wandering, makes constant presence safer.
Staying home matters
The person is deeply attached to their home and thrives on familiar surroundings and routine.
One-to-one attention
Families want dedicated, personal care rather than the shared attention of a facility.
Complete daily support, day and night
A live-in caregiver becomes a steady part of daily life — practical help woven together with real companionship.
Personal care
Help with washing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and mobility, offered patiently and respectfully.
Home & meals
Cooking to preference, light housekeeping, laundry, and keeping the home safe and comfortable.
Night support
Reassurance and assistance overnight — for toileting, repositioning, or simply a calming presence.
How rotation and rest work
- Two to three matched caregivers work on rotation so care is continuous and no caregiver is ever overtired.
- Rotations are planned in advance and shared with the family, so you always know who is on duty.
- Caregivers receive scheduled daily rest periods, arranged so the client is never left unsupervised.
- A consistent core team means your loved one always sees familiar, trusted faces.
- A care coordinator supervises the team and steps in if a caregiver is unexpectedly unavailable.
Arrangements and safeguards
A private space
The caregiver needs a bed and basic private space in the home; we'll advise on simple, comfortable arrangements.
Clear boundaries
Duties, rest hours, and expectations are agreed in writing so everyone knows what's included.
Vetted & trained
Every live-in caregiver is background-checked, First Aid certified, and reference-verified.
Ongoing oversight
Regular coordinator check-ins and family feedback keep standards high and issues small.
Transparent, flexible pricing
Live-in care is charged as a daily rate that covers continuous presence and the rotating team. Rates depend on the level of care and night support required.
Standard live-in
Daily rate
Continuous day and night presence with personal care and companionship for a stable client.
High-support live-in
Enhanced daily rate
For clients needing frequent night care, mobility support, or dementia supervision.
Couples / two clients
Per-household rate
Cost-effective live-in cover where two people in the same home both need support.
Prices are indicative and confirmed after a personal assessment. Final quotes reflect the level of care, hours, and any specialist needs.
“We were terrified of a care home. Live-in care let Dad stay in the house he built, with people he trusts. The rotation means someone is always fresh and alert — and always kind.”
