Barnfield Care have been helping my mother each morning and evening for over a month now. The staff have shown such kindness and care and are totally professional. They engage with my mum and have made a real effort to get to know her, and they are observant of any changes and they inform my dad if
he needs to mention something to the district nurses. I cannot recommend Barnfield highly enough.

Reply from Sharon Puaar, Owner/Manager at Barnfield Homecare (Stratford & Tamworth)

Thank you for taking time to review Barnfield Homecare. We are grateful for the lovely review and we appreciate your feedback. It is a pleasure to support your Mum and Dad to allow them to be together at home. They are so great together. Thank you.

Communication is excellent, from messages and phone calls from carers and management to comprehensive notes left for our review. Great attention to detail, especially checking medications and recommending samples when infections are suspected. All carers have been very attentive and go the extra mile
to make sure my mother-in-law is cared for and happy. Highly recommend.

We have just moved to Barnfield Homecare and are absolutely delighted with the quality of care, communication and overall management. All carers are genuine and hard-working and are happy to go the extra mile. We are kept up to date immediately if there is a problem and they all have a pro-active approach
to maintaining and improving the quality of life for my disabled mother.

The manager and her team have been instrumental in providing long-term and end-of-life care to my mother, who’d had a rare, complex and entirely debilitating illness. During Covid, they managed to keep our support bubble safe and tight. They have also showed understanding of my mum’s needs and endeavoured
to provide experienced and suitable carers when she really needed them.

Reply from Sharon Puaar, Owner/Manager at Barnfield Homecare (Stratford & Tamworth)

Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure looking after your mother, working in partnership with all relevant individuals to understand her condition and how best to manage it.

We have been using Barnfield Homecare since 11th April 2023.
The client has had excellent care from all the staff.
They support my wife as well, it gives my wife a break.
All staff are very pleasant, and work hard.

We are delighted with the service we have received from Barnfield Homecare. The carers are helpful, kind and polite. Initially, there were a few problems with my catheter (and setting up the night bag) but these are all now sorted. We would be happy to recommend Barnfield to new clients.
For reasons
already explained, we are quite anxious to switch to a later evening time slot as soon as an opportunity allows.

Professional and caring in a friendly way while dealing with clients, who can be quite difficult. Carer has a listening ear and observant eyes which makes for a good relationship. Barnfield care is a truly caring care agency, not only for the client but for the whole family.

I have been very pleased with the service received for my mom. The only thing that did stand out was when mom had single caregivers the time would clash, as in time for meals we one incident where one carer came in for dinner and the t-time carer came in as the dinner time carer left

My mum has mixed dementia and lives with her husband who is unsupportive and does not care for her. We brought in Barnfield Homecare in June 2023 after being referred by the Social Services safeguarding team and it was the best thing that could have happened for my mum.
The care coordinator has gone
over and above every step of the way. She has communicated amazingly well with me and kept me up to date with any issues that needed to be resolved. She has liaised with other agencies including Social Services to ensure my mum is safe and as well cared for as possible.
The carers are, without exception, wonderfully patient and make my mum feel valued as a person and ensure her wishes are catered to. They guide her to make her own choices enabling her to be as independent as possible and maintaining her dignity.
She thinks of the carers as her friends who pop around.
I cannot recommend Barnfield Homecare highly enough. They care for my mum as a person and not just a client.

After a short stay in hospital and three weeks in a care home (which Mum did not like), we contacted Barnfield Homecare to arrange live-in care. This has been excellent and the best care we could get for Mum. An excellent service and I can’t thank them enough.

Reply from Sharon Puaar, Registered Manager at Barnfield Homecare (Stratford & Tamworth)

Thank you for such a lovely review. We are so happy to support your mum so she can stay in the comfort of her own home. Please let us know if there’s anything else that we can help with. Thanks again!

My sister and I wanted our dad to spend his last few weeks in his own home with his faithful dog beside him. After doing some research we chose Barnfield Homecare to make that happen for us. Our Dad received 24/7 coverage via a live-in carer with support from other carers and nurses. Our dad's health
quickly deteriorated and the care team were fast to respond to the changes to ensure Dad did not suffer. My sister and I have no hesitation in recommending Barnfield Homecare.

Reply from Sharon Puaar, Registered Manager at Barnfield Homecare (Stratford & Tamworth)

Thank you for your lovely feedback, Chris, it’s much appreciated. We were so happy to support your dad and enable him to be at home with his dog during his last few weeks - we know she meant the world to him. Take care and please reach out if there's anything else we can help with. Many thanks.

I used Barnfield Homecare after returning home from the hospital quite incapacitated.
Friendly, experienced carers who helped me as I needed them and stood back to let me gradually recover my independence.
The agency is approachable and efficient and their costs are competitive. The carers seem to
find them to be good employers, which impressed me.
I experienced just the care I needed and would certainly use Barnfield again.

Thank you for your kind review, Penny. We're glad you feel supported - our team will always be on hand to help you gain your independence back.

Barnfield Homecare has provided care for my aged parents for a number of months. I have been impressed by the professionalism and genuine empathy of the care team who attend to my parents at home. Nothing is too much trouble and all tasks are carried out with a smile and a willingness to give their
best. The team are flexible and can react to a changing situation, with regard to health, on a daily basis. The medicine management is efficient and staff are knowledgeable and thorough with the administration of the prescribed drugs.
The addition of Barnfield staff as care providers has relieved the pressure and worry as a family, we have confidence in the integrity and ability of the team who are the caregivers.

Reply from Nisha Puaar, Marketing and Strategy at Barnfield Homecare (Stratford & Tamworth)

Thank you for such a lovely review, Davina. We're extremely pleased that you feel our team is professional and empathetic. Our carers genuinely love what they do and really enjoy visiting your parents, so their smiles come naturally. We are happy to relieve any pressure, as we always want you to focus on being a family rather than worrying about the care side - we're here to do that and support you as and when needed. Thank you again, we really appreciate your kind words!

I organised the Barnfield Homecare support for my dear elderly cousin (who had a diagnosis of dementia).
During the initial assessment they were friendly and thorough, put my cousin and me at ease, and quickly built rapport and confidence by asking such good questions, sensitively and most importantly,
listening to the questions we had - giving such reassuringly clear explanations. Their flexibility and genuineness came through especially well.
In the conversations and meetings I had with Barnfield - it was clear they really do have a very person-centred approach. I have no hesitation in recommending them for serious consideration - if you - or a relative - have home care support needs in Stratford upon Avon.
They are local – ‘on the doorstep’ - a relatively small caregiver – with a big heart and a warm smile.
I felt confident I could trust Barnfield with my vulnerable elderly relative. The whole process was excellent from start to finish. Their rates were very fair too.

Thank you very much for all you have done in providing care for my father. Your responsiveness in escalating input as his needs changed was very much appreciated. All the carers were kind, considerate and compassionate. They were also invariably cheerful and professional. They and you made a very difficult
time much easier for us.

Job Title: Co-owner & Registered Manager

Joined: 2020

With over 15 years of hands-on experience in the care sector and an NVQ Level 5 in Health and Social Care, I’m passionate about delivering safe, high-quality, and truly person-centred care. I take the time to visit each client and their family personally, to understand their individual needs, preferences, and routine, because no two people are the same, and neither is the care they receive.


From our very first meeting, your loved one’s well being becomes my priority. I work closely with families to create care plans that are tailored, reflect individual preferences, and remain flexible, ensuring the support we provide fits naturally into their lives and brings real peace of mind.


As a family-run business, we care deeply about the people we support, and that family feeling is at the heart of everything we do. If you’d like to talk through how we can help, I’d be more than happy to chat with you at any time.
