Home Instead North Herts

Hello, I’m Femi, the owner of Home Instead in Stevenage and North Hertfordshire. I have a 22 year background in medical practice, specialising in mental health. My clinical practice over the years has helped forge strong personal and professional values that are in line with Home Instead’s core value of client centred care.

My personal experience of looking after a parent with dementia, as well as my professional work as a specialist in dementia care has allowed me to understand the importance of promoting the client’s independence and ability to make choices, even in the face of the odds and challenges they might be facing, as a consequence of poor health.

My experience and values from clinical practice will be brought to bear in providing overarching leadership to the franchise as it continues to further its vision of providing care to the highest standards, in our local communities of Hitchin, Letchworth, Stevenage and surrounding towns and villages. Read less

Christmas Days were often spent in a care home, serving dinner and handing out presents, while her mum prepared their own celebrations at home.

These early experiences sparked a passion that has never left her. From those moments, she knew that working in care was not just something she wanted to do — it was where she belonged.

Today, she brings that same enthusiasm and dedication into her role, creating engaging, supportive learning environments where care pros can grow and thrive.
