I am very pleased by the care provided for my mother whilst I was away on holiday. The team ensured that she was looked after well throughout the two week period. Her physical needs were catered for really well. The team treated mum with great kindness. Mum indicated that she enjoyed the company of
the ladies and that she was treated with great respect. I felt that mum was in safe hands over those two weeks.

Reply from Aqila Choudhry, Registered Manager at Love In Care

I have found the whole team at Love In Care to be very professional and effective at their delivery of the required care. The management were very easy to work with and were contactable and approachable which is not always the case with service providers today. The carers were polite, respectful and
friendly. I would be happy to recommend this team.

I was recommended to "Love in Care" by a friend.
I had considered a couple of companies and wasn't happy.
I met with the owner of Love In Care. Her knowledge and understanding of what we needed for our father aged 91 years. They are very caring and she understood our needs. The owner helped us put
a plan together, as this was the first time we had ever had to do this for our dad, he was now needing extra care. We don't want him to go into a home.
Two lovely ladies in particular care for our dad. We are so happy with the love and care he is getting. Dad (which is our main concern is also happy) best recommendation we have ever had
Thank you Love In Care.

When our mum returned home from respite in a care home 4 months after losing our dad my brother and I were nervous about how she would cope in terms of independence, confidence, her mobility issues, and ongoing depression without the 24/7 care she had become used to. In daily visits Love In Care have
been nothing short of superb in providing Mum with all she's needed to overcome these issues, and the change in Mum in such a short timescale has been remarkable. We've also been kept up to date with feedback from visits via the group chat that was set up.

Reply from Aqila Choudhry, Registered Manager at Love In Care

Thank you for choosing us to support your mum who has made amazing progress to regain all the confidence to remain safe and independent and only a few weeks later she was ready to care for herself. This has been an incredible achievement for your mum and for us alike. We wish her all the best for the future.

We started receiving care for our 6 year old son nearly 12 months ago. We had never left our son with anyone other than family before as he is non-verbal and has autism as well as global developmental delay. We have a regular carer, who is amazing! She has developed a bond with our son and he trusts
her completely. He always looks forward to her visit and waits at the door for her. It has been a huge help to us, meaning we can spend time with our youngest son, without worrying about how T will react. We have a handy mobile app group set up, so that we can communicate, and the manager is understanding in last-minute changes and will always accommodate if possible. We're very happy!

Love In Care came to help us just when we needed it most. I cannot overstate how good they were. We had three carers in rotation 24 hours a day and they were absolutely what we needed. Professional, capable, experienced and above all caring, not just for Mum who needed care but for all of us who were
trying to cope with a difficult life event, so much more than mere service. Real, human, loving, I cannot thank them enough.

I have been receiving support from Love In Care for about a month, and I am feeling much more empowered in my life already. I am feeling less overwhelmed because I know my carer is coming to help me every week. I am not depressed anymore because I am not doing it on my own. I have learned how to ask
for help.
When I first got in touch, the manager was so welcoming and kind. She first helped me figure out how I can be best supported, and also told me about their ethos. Her story was inspiring and I respect how the company is compassion-focussed.
Thank you Love In Care.

We as a family are very satisfied with the services we receive from Love In Care. The carers are empathetic and provide homecare for my disabled brother who has severe learning disabilities and is also incontinent. My mother has also recently made progress in trusting Love In Care to complete more tasks
and a mix of staff both male and female. Also, all the staff can speak my mother's first language (which is not English) so this avoids the language barrier which is invaluable.

Reply from Aqila Choudhry, Registered Manager at Love In Care

Thank you for sharing the progression and trust we have gained from your mum. We are really grateful for her to step back whilst still having oversight. This progression will give that little bit of respite during our visits and still feel assured that the care and support are person-centred for your brother and meet mum's standards. They are a joy to support!

I have found Love In Care very straightforward, caring, and easy to communicate with. The manager is very helpful in listening to my son's needs and arranging for the carer to be available when needed. The carer is always on time, kind and friendly, and clearly has my son's interests at heart. It remains
a very positive experience, and we are so happy to have the consistency of the same carer each time, so a good relationship is building up.

Love In Care has been in contact with me from July 2023 - providing care for my mum so that my dad could have some respite as my mother was unwell with Cardiovascular Dementia. During this time, my dad was the full-time carer for Mum, therefore it was helpful to have Carers so that he could leave the
house and have some time to do social activities. In January 2024, my dad was first diagnosed with internal bleeding, at this time it was confirmed that he had Pancreatic Cancer (stage 4). Love In Care stepped in with all the support they could provide, to ensure Dad had all the care he required, in conjunction with a local hospice. The care was provided daily, with a rota for Mum and a separate rota for Dad. Each time Dad's health became more strained, the Carers would change their approach to ensure he was safe, comforted and nourished as well as possible. I will always remember and appreciate, the efforts of Management and their Team, thank you kindly.

The level of care my parents are receiving is great. From the first visit, Love In Care made sure that we were all happy with the level of care and what would happen at each visit. The carers are always professional, extremely smart in their appearance, treat my parents with dignity and the visits are
not rushed. It is a weight off my mind knowing that the carers are doing such a good job. I would not hesitate to recommend Love In Care to anyone.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.934 for Love In Care is calculated as follows: ( (186 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 198 Ratings = 4.934

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Love In Care is based on 34 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
