Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was recommended to Bright Dawn by a friend who had used the care service for his mother and to date I have not been disappointed with the service they have given. The carer my mom has takes a genuine interest in both my mom's physical and social well-being. I know my mom was reluctant to have care
to start with as she is very independent, however, I feel she really appreciates the help she now has first thing in the morning. Bright Dawn make every effort to send the same carer whenever possible, however, there are occasions when there is a change, but they will always advise me of any changes in advance if this is possible, either online or by telephone.

Bright Dawn Home Care have been supporting my parents for many years, initially with a lower level of support, but building up over time to reflect their changing needs. They have always provided a professional, reliable and caring service which we totally rely on. Without their care and consistency,
my father would have been unable to remain in his own home. Would definitely recommend to others.
Reply from Leigh Hill, Marketing at Bright Dawn Home Care

Thank you for your review. It is very rewarding to hear such positive feedback, we are so pleased we were able to offer your father the support and care he needed.

Carers from Bright Dawn helped my father in the mornings since March 2022. The standard of care and assistance was excellent throughout and hugely appreciated by my mother in particular. As well as excellent care, the administrative arrangements were always clear, communication regarding visit times
(consistent and on time) was excellent and it was easy to speak to someone in the office team when necessary. All in all an excellent service, thank you.
Reply from Leigh Hill, Marketing at Bright Dawn Home Care

Thank you, Mark, for such a glowing review! We ensure this feedback is shared with our wonderful team of carers and in this case our office staff. It is of great encouragement to know that we have provided the level of care that exceeds expectations.

My mother is 96 years old, has Alzheimer's and has 24-hour live-in care. The care she has received has been excellent from the outset. The carers she has had have all understood her needs and treated her with dignity and care even when her condition has been challenging. The support from the office
staff has also been excellent and any problems or questions that have arisen, have been dealt with immediately.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been receiving Bright Dawn Home Care since September 2021. The service has been exemplary throughout the period, with the carers turning up on time and staying for the allotted time. They seem to show the due amount of care during their visits and on occasions seem prepared to go the extra
mile. The carers have contacted me where there has been an issue, and together we have managed any problems that have arisen. I have had to contact Bright Dawn on many occasions either by phone or email, and each call has been handled speedily and efficiently. Overall, an excellent service and I've been very pleased with it over the months.

The carers are lovely and helpful and I will miss them all. Unfortunately, the price was too much and we had to find a cheaper company.
Gladly it is the best thing we did. Our new care company care more about people than money.
Reply from Tracy Ferreira, Director at Bright Dawn Home Care

Thank you for your review, we welcome all feedback and take all comments on board. Our aim is to provide the best possible care to those we support and I am sorry that you feel that you have not received this service. We had been providing care to you since 2011 and have made every effort to be able to provide you with the best carers at a price that was suitable. As you were a valued and long-standing client you were provided with preferential rates. We pay our carers above the national living wage in order to ensure that we have carers that feel valued and offer the best service. Our current prices for care are in line with our local competitors. All customers are made fully aware of these prior to care provision. Once again, we are sorry that you feel the experience did not meet your expectations. We are pleased that you have managed to find a service that you feel meets your needs. We wish you all the very best.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My uncle received excellent care from the Bright Dawn Home Care team. His progressing dementia and mobility problems were handled well by the team of regular carers that visited several times daily, looking after mealtimes, morning and evening routines, and companionship calls. The family were able
to discuss changes to care arrangements with the manager, and feedback was always welcomed and taken on board. We got to know several of the carers well ourselves, and could see firsthand their level of thoughtfulness towards my uncle's care.
Reply from Tracy Ferreira, Director at Bright Dawn Home Care

Thank you for your uplifting review. We are so fortunate to have continuity within our team which we think is key to everything we do. We are pleased that you were happy with our high standards and it was a pleasure to provide the care for your uncle.

My mother has been looked after by carers from Bright Dawn Home Care over the past two years.
I cannot say how pleased I am with every aspect of the company. From wonderful carers who have become close friends with my mom to the manager, who has gone above and beyond to help both mom and me I reside
in the USA.
The owner has been most helpful and understanding, helping us in our Somewhat unique circumstances during testing times.


I have full confidence that mom is receiving the best possible care, which is a great comfort for me living so far away.

Bright Dawn Home Care have been providing companionship/help for my 97-year-old sister with the utmost professionalism for almost two years. I live 350 miles away from my sister and with Bright Dawn taking on her day to day care, I know that any worry I might have will be attended to speedily and in
a sympathetic manner. For me the whole team are stars.
