We find the carers from Heydays first class, they treat my husband and myself with care and empathy and are totally professional at all times.
Heydays have made a huge amount of difference to our lives. The care my husband receives from them is first class, and I cannot thank them enough.

I have been a client with Heydays for over 8 years. I have always been happy with my care. Staff are pleasant, friendly and caring. Nothing is too much trouble if asked to do any little extra.
I would never go to any other company. It's like having an extended family.

Heydays is a great team. They have lovely carers who are committed and dedicated to supporting me and my family. Some of the carers go above and beyond and this is a real credit to heydays. The staff are very knowledgeable and very hard working. They make sure that I have everything I need/want before
they leave my house. They made me feel very comfortable during a time when I was really anxious about having home care. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them. Keep up the great work! Thank you

We highly recommend Heydays. Any contact over the phone was dealt with kindness, professional and friendly. Nothing too much trouble. The care staff are kind, and caring and go above and beyond. Mum was treated with dignity and good humour. They enabled mum to live in her own home until she needed full-time
care.

A very reliable care company. Staff are friendly and inform me if there is to be a change of day or time. I am fortunate - at the moment - that I require sitting and shopping service.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team are all friendly and approachable. My husband enjoys chatting to them and having a laugh when they carry out his morning care. Having social visits does help to give him time away from home.
Having always been a very prude person, they go the extra mile to protect his dignity.
I appreciate
that there will always be staff with whom he may not get on with.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The carers looking after my late mum were such kind individuals, always looking out for mum's welfare and happiness and wanting to make sure she was in a good place before they left after each visit. Some would go the extra mile and just buy a product or item that mum needed, sometimes they stayed extra
time because mum may be anxious or had misplaced an item, making them a bit late for their next appointment, but they cared and didn't want to leave her alone until mum was settled. The whole team in Grange are very professional and work closely together to provide the best service. They really do care deeply about their clients and want to help them so much.

On his first visit, your carer was in the bathroom and watched how I got into it and then advised me of a much better and safer way. He repeated this on leaving the bath. This regular presence allows me to continue to enjoy a bath without perhaps slipping and hurting myself. A bath I much look forward
to! He also washes my hair! Much better than doing it over the sink!

Heydays is a fantastic care company. My Mother receives top class care every morning and her carers go above and beyond the call of duty. I cannot praise enough the undivided care and attention her main carer gives her. Nothing is too much trouble for Heydays carers and it's the little extras they provide
that makes them so special. Thanks to you all.

Excellent experience: been helped to travel to and fro to lunch club and also to and fro for nailed to be varnished. Help given to use my computer and also to help my husband to get our TV's on and working. Carers go out of their way to sort out any problems I might have. Anu extra shopping needed they
will try to get us. All carers are welcome and kind and supportive.

I find all the carers and staff at Heydays care are all very good and caring. I see quite a few of Heydays staff, and they always treat me with friendliness and care. I feel very well looked after. They will take me to the dentist or the optician and are always willing to oblige if my needs change.
