Home Instead have made my life more comfortable and given me confidence and strength to preserve and improve my quality of life. All the staff are very professional and friendly. They are first class and the best of the best.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. it is very much appreciated.
All reviews are subjective. The only comparison I can make is with all care. I prefer Home Instead because you always send two carers who genuinely give me the respect due to an old man of 92. I am treated with respect, as well, but importantly, it's always.
Thank you for your review, it is much appreciated, I will pass it on to the team
I needed temporary care for a few weeks for my mother whilst I was on holiday. Home Instead were prompt and efficient in organising daily visits at short notice, using the same carer each day. I found them very helpful and kind and my mother was extremely happy with the care she received and was full of praise for her carers.. My mother is fairly independent but still needs some help and i found Home Instead got the balance perfectly right and the carers were very knowledgeable and supportive. I would highly recommend them and it is reassuring to me that they are there as and when I need them.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, I am so glad we were able to support your mother to a high standard. Thank you again.
They have always shown her the utmost respect, kindness, and professionalism while caring for her. We are enormously grateful to them all, and I cannot recommend Home Instead highly enough.
It is a really difficult and emotional experience choosing care options for a loved one, but Home Instead have been brilliant at guiding us through.
Thank you for your amazing review, it makes such as huge difference to the team. Thank you again.
Your services have been great. During the time I have had your staff. Looking after me, nothing is too much. Trouble day or night.
Thank you for your review. It is much appreciated. I will pass it on to the team
My Dad has said he was showered in kindness by his carers, and he has nothing but praise for the the care they give him.
As a family we have been very impressed by how well they look after him and go about their job. They are always helpful when we speak to them and supportive.
It takes a lot of pressure of us as a family knowing he is well cared for.
Thank you so much for your review. It is very much appreciated. I am glad your Dad is happy with the service he is receiving.
We've been using Home Instead Aylesbury for my mums dementia care, and the experience has been wonderful. The care professionals are patient and compassionate and really helped my mum stay comfortable and safe in her own home, which means the world to me. The communication and reliability are excellent. Highly recommend for in home care.
Thank you so much for your review. It means so much to the team who support your mum. I will make sure they are all made aware. Thank you again.
Great service from Home Instead. They have been looking after my mother who lives with advanced dementia. They have done an amazing job at keeping her happy and safe in her own home, I cannot thank you enough.
What an amazing review. Thank you so much for these kind words, it means the world to the team.
Home instead has been amazing with caring for my father with his advanced Alzheimer's condition. I can't thank the team enough for supporting both him and the rest of my family through this difficult time.
Thank you for your amazing review. It has been a pleasure supporting your father. I will ensure the caregiver is made aware and acknowledged.
We feel thoroughly cared for and supported by the team. The carers have been lovely, kind, and caring, and always punctual.
When one goes through challenging times with a loved one, you just need that reassurance and practical help which helps relieve a stressful and worrying situation. The office always get back to us, when we phone or message, so very reliable!
hospital on discharge, and since then we have heard that Home Instead is certainly one of the
best companies in the area.
This is the first time we have had to have carers, and it certainly has been a good experience so far.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I will ensure the team is made aware.
What an amazing team at Home Instead. I have no reservations in recommending them, the ladies & gent in the office are so helpful, professional and responsive. The ladies that come out to mum are just wonderful, nothing is too much trouble and they are so caring, it is so comforting to know that mum is being so well looked after, thank you to you all.
Thank you for your wonderful review. It is greatly appreciated and goes a long way to showing the team that they are continually doing a great job.
Excellent service. Identified the issue, replaced a part efficiently & communicated well. The team were very professional, friendly & helpful. Very happy with all aspects of the service. The pre service communication was excellent. I knew exactly what was happening at all times. The service was provided in a timely and friendly manner.
I am extremely happy with the service & level of care from Home instead. I have experienced many different care companies throughout my life but this is one of the first I have been completely happy with. From all the office to the carers there is a high level of quality care who care about me as a person but continually adapt to my needs too. They are more expensive than other care companies but their level of care & commitment to clients outweighs any cost. It is quite difficult to find good care so when you find someone that makes you feel safe & secure it is worth everything.
Excellent service given from the start to present day. I needed care in place for my mum at very short notice and was served almost immediately. Short notice wasn't an issue and the care package in place is invaluable to me. Thankyou
Thank you so much for your review. I will pass this on to the team. It is very much appreciated.
We contacted 'Home instead' with a view to having help for my mother twice a day as she had fallen and was unable to look after herself. They were able to help and a carer started the very next day. The same lady came morning and evening which was good for my mother and she liked the lady. Unfortunately two days later my mother has another fall, and it was the carer who found her. We decided that mum could not live on her own any more and immediate action needed to be taken' Home instead 'were able to put a lovely lady in with my mum on that afternoon and she did a wonderful job of looking after my mum every day while we were able to sort out the problem. We are very impressed with all the staff at Aylesbury 'Home instead and would like to say a big thank you for helping us out at a difficult time.
Thank you for your kind words and wonderful review. This means a lot to the team and will be shared with them.
My regular carer and regular back up carer are excellent. My regular carer will help and care for me in any way I ask. She is patient and emphasizes well with me and goes way beyond in all she does. She is a friend, companion, carer, cook and home help all wrapped into one.
I am very satisfied with my carer, she never complains about anything I get her to do and smiles when I come up with outrageous suggestions, I just hope the staff have a long and happy relationship, which also depends on me 'behaving' myself at all times.
I have found the carers very professional and empathetic. They are well trained and happy in their roles. I have had a bad experience with another agency that supported me last year so I feel Home Instead have been a breath of fresh air!! I have two main carers that support me and their knowledge and skill put me at ease very quickly. The office team are very efficient too.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. This means so much to the team.
All my Home Instead helpers are very helpful. They help with shopping, hoovering, gardening, taking me out for a walk, opening bottles, cheering my day up, and taking me out for events, e.g. Dung Beatles concert.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is an absolute pleasure supporting you and going out and about.
I am a client of Home Instead Aylesbury and I find the service fantastic. They provide great care, they give me all the support I need and give me the ability to stay at home.
Thank you for your wonderful review. It is a pleasure to support you to remain independent in your home.

My name is Fay Sinclair and I have been working in the care sector since 1998. Over these years I have gained knowledge and experience working in many different areas of care such as child welfare, Residential care, and working with people living with dementia. I love to care for individuals in our community by supporting them and encouraging them to live happily in their own homes. My passion for care in the community informed my decision to permanently move to Domiciliary care in 2003.
I joined Home Instead Aylesbury Vale and North East Oxfordshire in May 2020 as a Senior Care Professional. The values and beliefs held by Home Instead, particularly those in supporting individuals in our local community and offering truly person-centred care represent what I stand for. This enables me to thoroughly enjoy my job on a daily basis. Home Instead is where I have decided I want to grow my career as quality is never compromised and the team are highly professional in everything that they do.
In the summer of 2022, I started feeling that I could do more and set my sights on becoming the Care Manager. The owners have fully supported my ambition and my studies for Level 5 in Health and Social Care. In doing so I have stepped into my current role as a Care Manager. There is a lot to learn but one of the things I’ve learnt by being at Home Instead is that we are always learning. If it’s not learning something new then it’s learning to improve.
I can’t express how happy I am doing what I do with Home Instead but I can say that I’m very excited and looking forward to a continued career with Home Instead.
My name is Julia, and I joined the Home Instead family in August 2020 as a Care Professional. I didn’t think that I could start afresh with a new career but having worked with Home Instead and realising that the owners were very supportive of development, I started considering building my career here.
Since joining, I’ve been fully supported to complete my Level 2 in Health and Social Care and have more recently started my Level 3 in Health and Social Care. I’ve also successfully been promoted to a Senior Care Professional role. I am very proud of my achievements and am very happy to be working with an organisation that puts client care at the heart of what we do. I really enjoy what I do. I love providing hands-on care in the community and supporting our Care Professionals in doing their fantastic work.
I used to work with children so providing care to a different age group was completely new to me. Home Instead taught me how to help and support individuals in the community in a way that enhances their quality of life. I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with great clients and amazing colleagues, and I am excited about my future with Home Instead.
Hi, my name is Luan. I get satisfaction from ensuring that all of our client care packages are delivered with continuity and stability to the best that can be achieved. I also prioritise our Care Professional's well-being when planning and coordinating client visits.
Hi, my name is Donna. After caring for a family member it became clear that becoming a Caregiver was the role for me. I love making a difference to our clients and their families, this is what gives me job satisfaction.
Hi, my name is Klaudia. Caregiving is one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I love caring for clients and I love to see them smiling when I walk through their door.
My name is Matthew Coombs. I joined Home Instead Aylesbury Vale & Northeast Oxfordshire in January 2023 as a student on a placement year, to gain some physical experience of how a business works, and to support my learning in business management. After my placement year, I have continued with Home Instead as the lead Recruiter.
Home Instead does some amazing work with its clients in their local community. I am proud to say I am part of such a positive organisation, working to change the face of ageing. It is uncommon to find a company that is such a great match for your values, so I cannot be happier at Home Instead.
The customer is right at the heart of what we do here at Home Instead. Our client-oriented approach allows us to provide meaningful and relationship-led lead care with professionalism. Everyone at Home Instead shares the same values of delivering quality care in people's homes, enabling them to get the most out of their daily living. The Home Instead Care Professionals always put the client at the centre of what they do, making a difference through the care they provide. Working alongside such an amazing team motivates me within my role, and I could not be happier supporting our Care Professionals.
As a student placement, I was given the opportunity to develop with the team and really get involved with the organisation. The responsibilities I was given were great for my personal and professional development. This motivated me to strive to improve myself and build upon the work which I do, to enable Home Instead to work towards their vision of expanding the world’s capacity to care. Since my student placement, this motivation has remained the same. The core Home Instead values are embodied across the organisation. The role of lead Recruiter has allowed me to meet some remarkable people who do incredible work for others. I look forward to coming to work each day in the knowledge that I am part of such a great organisation, where I can play my part in making a positive difference.
