Review from Judith P (Daughter of Client) published on 28 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I've had an excellent experience with Golders Green Nursing Agency from 2013 until the present. They are incredibly responsive - I can call them at any hour, even late at night, and always speak to someone who genuinely understands medical and caring needs.


The staff that come to our home are knowledgeable,

compassionate, and consistently of a very high quality. GGN always manage to find suitable carers or nurses, even at short notice. Over several months, they provided reliable and dedicated day and night support for my father and also helped with smaller nursing needs. Their team includes a wide range of professionals - from qualified nurses who can take blood or give injections, to kind and capable live-in or visiting carers. I'm deeply grateful to the entire team and all their nurses for their continued support, and I look forward to benefiting from their excellent services for many years to come.

My wife has been taken care of by the carers on a number of occasions, sometimes after a few days in hospital.
The kindness and expertise is wonderful.
Always willing to go the extra mile and get on with the job, giving the patient confidence, when at their most vulnerable.
Thank you

This really superb agency cared for both my parents through live in care- the carers we were provided were conscientious, kind, incredibly diligent. And the agency itself was so responsive, flexible and ultra efffcient. I cannot recommend this agency enough.

I cannot speak highly enough of Golders Green Nursing.
They have been working for the family for many years, starting with one member until his passing in 2019 and from then for another member of the family who passed away at the age of 96 on 29th August.
The care and compassion was exemplary.
During
the past months, when she was being treated for 'end of life' we had visits from District Nurses and other outside agencies and they all commented and complimented on the care that she was receiving and could not think of any improvements that could be made.
The carers became a part of the family and treated her as if she was one of their own dear parents.
We will always be grateful to them for the dignity they allowed this lovely lady.
When we called the office with an issue, somebody would immediately arrive and always with a solution.

GGN provided an outstanding and experienced registered nurse (RN) for visiting aftercare following an operation, In the event a follow up operation was needed and the level of care required became more complicated - but GGN coped with everything that came along, with plenty in reserve. We'd definitely
recommend them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My family has used GGN for about 4 years to look after both my parents with dementia. It has been a huge relief to have their help. They have provided us with a great team of careers. It provides my parents and the family with stability and also confidence that they are getting the care they need.
The carers are sympathetic to their worries and are able to calm their anxiety. Which is not always possible for a family member to achieve.
We would be totally lost without GGN.
As family members we have had a huge amount of support from GGN, when we have been struggling with the situation they have managed to calm and assure us too!

The agency simply enabled me to manage coming home from hospital as easily as possible. Their care was professional and sympathetic, catering for my needs. They advised and helped enormously with the supply of all the equipment I needed. My carer was extremely kind and efficient and quickly became like
part of the family. I can't recommend them highly enough.

What a fantastic agency. This is an outstanding care organisation that provides professional, kind, caring, intelligent and supremely able carers. I run out of adjectives to describe the brilliance of their team. I brought them in to provide 24/7 support and care for my mother in her own home after
she suffered a hip replacement at age 97. The carers did everything from the most intimate to the most mundane household chores. They are all highly trained and experienced. They became part of the family and we treated them as such. My mother was very fond of them and they of my mother. I never worried for a moment and had 100% confidence in them. I will miss them now that my mother has sadly passed away peacefully at 101+.

The nurse has been coming on a weekly basis for a year and we are very pleased with the way that my husband is being looked after.
The nurse has a lovely personality and one of her special qualities is her great communication skills and being very supportive of my husband also regarding any slight
problem she is most helpful.

Golders Green Nursing are an extremely well-run, professional and above all else, caring company. The carer is so incredibly committed to looking after her clients and always available to discuss things and make changes, often at very short notice. The quality of the nurses is very high too and I always
felt confident leaving my mother in their care.
If I need their services again I will not hesitate to use them and can confidently and enthusiastically recommend them to anyone else.
You will be in very safe hands.

We engaged the Golders Green Nursing Agency to look after my father while we were away. We were impressed by the competent and friendly response of the agency and of the carer who stayed with him for a week. The carer looked after my father and his home very conscientiously and with warmth, ensured
he was well looked after and accompanied him to a hospital appointment. Communication was clear, and we felt he was in very good hands. We were very pleased and grateful for the agency's help.

Review from Andrew N (Son of Client) published on 3 May 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I required a care agency at very short notice for my mother as I needed to go overseas. I searched around for a few agencies and was recommended Golders Green Nursing Agency from an experienced social worker friend, following the agency caring for her grandmother. The agency was excellent, they responded
extremely quickly, allocated an exceptional live-in carer for my mother and had all the paperwork in place very swiftly. The live-in carer was great, they had a lovely time together and I was kept regularly updated. It all worked out perfectly and I am very very very grateful for the agency being so responsive and providing my mother such excellent care. If I could afford to, I would use their live-in care team permanently. Although I am sure I will require their services again in the future and will have no hesitation to contact them.

Review from Nick G (Client) published on 23 April 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The director responded right away to my enquiry from hospital and worked with the NHS ward closely to ensure I had everything I needed to be safely discharged - it was complicated due to NHS policy/compliance and not easy and he understood how urgent the situation was and prioritised getting me home
with all the right medication and equipment.
The IV specialist nurse was exceptional. Totally reliable, always on time, incredibly friendly and personable and also very knowledgeable and very professional. There is nothing about delivering IV medicine that she did not know and she also very patiently explained and answered our questions. She ensured that I always felt cared for and worked around our schedule to ensure that we felt comfortable. I'll not miss having an IV line in my arm and daily drugs but as a family we will miss her who we always enjoyed seeing each day. I would highly recommend GGN and in particular the IV specialist nurse.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister and I engaged the Golders Green Nursing Agency to look after both our late parents at different times under the excellent leadership skills of the owner/manager and her wonderful team.
We feel very fortunate that both our elderly parents were able to remain in their own home during their
final years, and the carers treated them with the utmost kindness, compassion, dignity and respect that we could have wished for and we have no doubt that the feelings were mutual.
This was a very sensitive and crucial time and we greatly appreciate all the care and attention given.
My sister, the family and I would have no hesitation in recommending Golders Green Nursing Agency to families looking after their loved ones in their later years.
Many thanks.

Wow - what amazing personalised care my relative has been receiving for many years from the owner/manager and her wonderful team. Despite dementia taking a firm hold of my aunt the carers have adapted their care to fully meet her needs and delivered it in the most kind and compassionate manner, always
going above and beyond. 24/7 care delivered with the utmost dignity and respect from the fabulous team at Golden Green Nursing Agency has meant my aunt can remain in her own home. The leadership is simply amazing - always available and taking a personal and involved approach with both my aunt and myself. Golden Green Nursing Agency without doubt deliver the finest care and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them. We will forever be indebted.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Two years ago my mother needed 24 hour care. Golders Green Nursing was recommended to us by a number of people in the medical industry. During the last two years, staff has provided not only the most excellent level of care staff, but also personally has always gone above and beyond. Whether it is
helping with medical appointments/prescriptions, even collecting prescriptions from the local pharmacy, or just being on the end of the phone at any time to give advice and support, we as a family have really appreciated her dedication. She also provided the most amazing carers for my mum, who would not only look after her direct care needs but also keep an eye on my father and give advice and support to all of us. We could not have dealt with any of this without Golders Green Nursing. I would recommend them without hesitation.

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.991 for Golders Green Nursing is calculated as follows: ( (106 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.991

Job Title: Founder Joined: 1991

We are a proud family-run business, led by Claudia Alexander, a Registered General Nurse who specialises in Coronary Care and Care of the Elderly and has over 40 years of nursing experience.


It was this experience that brought into focus the need for an agency in London that could offer high-calibre nurses and carers at affordable prices. Claudia also became aware that, since many of the clients would be elderly and housebound, a more personal approach would be appreciated. To this end, each client is visited regularly to ensure standards are being maintained, and the Agency keeps in constant contact via telephone to check all is running smoothly.
